This tag is a stand-alone tag that you can use to denote
relationships between documents. This feature will be useful if
you have to manage several files on a large website. The
attributes for this tag are :
HREF - Specifies the URL of the related document
NAME - Defines a link from an anchor or URL to the current
document
METHODS - Provides a list of functions supported by the current
document
REL - Defines the relationship between the current document and
the document specified in HREF
REV - Defines the reverse relationship between the current
document and the document specified in the HREF (opposite of REL)
TITLE - Provides the title of the linked document
URN - Assigns a Uniform Resource Number for the current document.
The <LINK> tag also has a role in providing style sheet
information in HTML documents. If style information is in a
separate file, you can link to that file with <LINK
HREF="styles.css" REL="stylesheet"> This
<LINK> tag says that the file styles.css provides
stylesheet information for the current file. The css extension
stands for "cascading style sheet".
The <LISTING> tag can be used to present
blocks of text in fixed-width font, and so is suitable for text
that has been formatted on screen. As such, it is similar to the <PRE> and <XMP> tag, but has a
different syntax.
Typically, it will render as fixed width font with white space
separating it from other text. It should be rendered such that
132 characters fit on the line. Only Netscape actually complies
with this
Example : This example shows<LISTING>the
listing of </LISTING>items.
The Internet Explorer and Netscape will translate any special
characters included within <LISTING> elements. i.e. if
characters such as <, > etc. are used, they will be
translated to < and >.
