HTML:Element:acronym
From MDC
[edit] Summary
<acronym>...</acronym> (Acronym) element allows authors to clearly indicate a sequence of characters that compose an acronym or abbreviation for a word.
[edit] Example
I modified my <acronym title="eXtensible HyperText Markup Language">XHTML</acronym> all night to make it validated by the <acronym title="World Wide Web Consortium">W3C</acronym>.
[edit] Result
I modified my XHTML all night to make it validated by the W3C.
[edit] Notes
The purpose of this tag is purely for the convenience of the author. However, Opera and Mozilla will add a dotted underline to the acronym when the page is rendered. Unlike the abbreviation element, the full meaning of an acronym is not displayed.
