Usage notes

-
-

The <header> element has an identical meaning to the site-wide banner landmark role, unless nested within sectioning content. Then, the <header> element is not a landmark.

The <header> element can define a global site header, described as a banner in the accessibility tree. It usually includes a logo, company name, search feature, and possibly the global navigation or a slogan. It is generally located at the top of the page.

Otherwise, it is a section in the accessibility tree, and usually contains the surrounding section's heading (an h1 – h6 element) and optional subheading, but this is not required.

-

Historical Usage

-

The <header> element originally existed at the very beginning of HTML for headings. It is seen in the very first website. At some point, headings became <h1> through <h6>, allowing <header> to be free to fill a different role.

-

Attributes

-

This element only includes the global attributes.
