HTML <menu> Tag

The <menu> tag in HTML is used to represent a group of commands that a user can perform or activate. It can be used for creating contextual menus, toolbars, or navigation menus on a webpage.

Example:


<menu>
  <li>Home</li>
  <li>About</li>
  <li>Contact</li>
</menu>

In the above example, we have a simple <menu> with three menu items - Home, About, and Contact.

Main attributes of the <menu> tag:

Attribute Description
type Specifies the type of commands that the menu contains. Possible values are context (for contextual menus), toolbar (for toolbars), and list (for navigation menus).
label Specifies a visible label for the menu.

Usage of attributes:

The type attribute is used to specify the type of the menu. For example, if you want to create a contextual menu, you can use the following:

<menu type="context">
  <li>Edit</li>
  <li>Delete</li>
</menu>

The label attribute can be used to provide a visible label for the menu. For example:

<menu label="Main Menu">
  <li>Home</li>
  <li>About</li>
  <li>Contact</li>
</menu>

Using the <menu> tag and its attributes, you can create user-friendly menus on your webpage that are easily accessible and visually appealing.
