cite

Support

Indicates a citation, usually text rendered in italics by the browser.

The cite element identifies that the continued text is from another source (book, another web page, etc.). This element is not deprecated, but it is possible to get much richer effect with CSS. Use the span element with the font-style property instead.

Example

<p>Any good software engineer will tell you 
    that a compiler and an interpreter are 
    interchangeable. <cite>Tim Berners-Lee</cite>.</p>
