QUOTATIONS

< blockquote>

The < blockquote> element is used for longer quotes that take up an entire paragraph. Note how the element is still used inside the < blockquote> element.
Browsers tend to indent the contents of the < blockquote> element, however you should not use this element just to indent a piece of text — rather you should achieve this effect using CSS.

< q>

The < q> element is used for shorter quotes that sit within a paragraph. Browsers are supposed to put quotes around the < q> element, however Internet Explorer does not — therefore many people avoid using the < q> element.
Both elements may use the cite attribute to indicate where the quote is from. Its value should be a URL that will have more information about the source of the quotation.
