Instantaneous I'm working on developing a portfolio site. Hereby I strive to be as accurate as possible markup. I'm currently stuck in the use of heading tags. Are there any guidelines on the use of h1, h2, h3 tags etc? I find it difficult to determine what is and what is now an h1 h3 is an example.
I like to hear of your findings.
According to w3c:
The header element typically contains the headings for a section (an h1-h6 element or hgroup element), along with content such as introductory material or navigational aids for the section.
So the header can contain h1, etc. But not every h1 should be wrapped in a header. Only if it is related to the section.
The header tag is just semantics. It helps browsers (and developers) to understand your page better.
