HTML tutorial: HTML Headings

The h element represents a heading, which is a level of importance in a document. The value of the h1 element through h6 elements must be unique within each document.

HTML DOM reference: Heading Object

The Heading object returns information about an element on a web page.

Default CSS Settings

The browser displays the h1 element with default values:

| Property | Value | | --- | --- | | display | block | | font-size | 2em | | margin-top | 0.67em| | margin-bottom| 0.67em| | margin-left | 0 | | margin-right| 0 | | font-weight| bold |
