Love it when I find out about HTML tags I didn't know existed before. 😍

There are sooo many, every now and then I'm like oh wait, that's a cool one I didn't know!
It's also a question of how often you need these, in this case, it's very specific and I need it for a header with a super long word.

What kind of cool ones have you discovered already?

This is not a tag but, I did find out about the multiple attribute for <input type="email" /> recently on Twitter.

Allowing you to add multiple emails separated by commas. Only seen that on type="file" before.
