Nested HTML Elements

Nested HTML elements refer to the structure where one HTML element is contained within another, forming a hierarchy or parent-child relationship. This nesting is fundamental to HTML's ability to organize content and define the structure of a web page. Here's an example to illustrate nested HTML elements:

 

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
    <meta charset="UTF-8">
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
    <title>Nested Elements Example</title>
</head>
<body>
    <div id="parent">
        <h1>This is a heading</h1>
        <p>This is a paragraph.</p>
        <ul>
            <li>Item 1</li>
            <li>Item 2</li>
            <li>Item 3</li>
        </ul>
        <div id="child">
            <p>This paragraph is nested within a div.</p>
            <a href="#">This is a nested link</a>
        </div>
    </div>
</body>
</html>

 example:

  • The <div> element with the id "parent" serves as the outer container.
  • Inside the "parent" <div>, there are various child elements, including <h1>, <p>, <ul>, and another nested <div> with the id "child".
  • The "child" <div> contains its own nested elements: a <p> element and an <a> element.
