What secondary and tangential elements mean in HTML?

Answer 1

Oh, I see what you're referring to now. The intended content of the <aside> element is something that is secondary or tangential to the main subject of the page, article, or section.

In other words, when you use the <aside> tag, you're telling other people or programs (like robots that search the Internet) that whatever you're putting here is beside the point, possibly distracting, but still worth mentioning.

Does that rephrasing help at all?

Answer 2

Hi saurabh,

I'm not sure what you mean by those terms. What context did you find the use of those terms? I don't believe it is a standard way of referring to different types of HTML elements.
