Mark Tag

The <mark> tag defines marked text. This tag is used to highlight the text in the html document.

We can mark the text using many properties from global attributes of html5 e.g. by changing font ,background color ,font color etc. This tag must have opening and closing <mark> tag.

<mark> tag is new in HTML5.
