Examples

- -

Marking text of interest

-
-

In this first example, a <mark> element is used to mark some text within a quote which is of particular interest to the user.

-

html

-
<blockquote>
-  It is a period of civil war. Rebel spaceships, striking from a hidden base,
-  have won their first victory against the evil Galactic Empire. During the
-  battle, <mark>Rebel spies managed to steal secret plans</mark> to the Empire's
-  ultimate weapon, the DEATH STAR, an armored space station with enough power to
-  destroy an entire planet.

Identifying context-sensitive passages

-
-

This example demonstrates using <mark> to mark search results within a passage.

-

html

-
<p>
-  It is a dark time for the Rebellion. Although the Death Star has been
-  destroyed, <mark class="match">Imperial</mark> troops have driven the Rebel
-  forces from their hidden base and pursued them across the galaxy.
-</p>
-
-<p>
-  Evading the dreaded <mark class="match">Imperial</mark> Starfleet, a group of
-  freedom fighters led by Luke Skywalker has established a new secret base on
-  the remote ice world of Hoth.
-</p>
-
-

To help distinguish the use of <mark> for search results from other potential usage, this example applies the custom class "match" to each match.

Accessibility concerns

-
-

The presence of the mark element is not announced by most screen reading technology in its default configuration. It can be made to be announced by using the CSS content property, along with the ::before and ::after pseudo-elements.

-

css

-
mark::before,
-mark::after {
-  clip-path: inset(100%);
-  clip: rect(1px, 1px, 1px, 1px);
-  height: 1px;
-  overflow: hidden;
-  position: absolute;
-  white-space: nowrap;
-  width: 1px;
-}
-
-mark::before {
-  content: " [highlight start] ";
-}
-
-mark::after {
-  content: " [highlight end] ";
-}
-
-

Some people who use screen readers deliberately disable announcing content that creates extra verbosity. Because of this, it is important to not abuse this technique and only apply it in situations where not knowing content has been highlighted would adversely affect understanding.
