<big>

HTML <big> tag

The <big> element is used to increase the font size by one conventional unit. The font in HTML is measured in conventional units from 1 to 7, the default text size is 3.

This element makes the text one size bigger. However, the text cannot be larger than the maximum font size of the browser. (此元素使文本放大一倍。但是,文本不能大于浏览器的最大字体大小。)

The <big> tag is placed within the <body> tag.

The <big> is a deprecated HTML tag, and it is no longer used in HTML5. Use CSS styles that control font size instead.

Now let’s consider another example, where we use the CSS font-size property to make the text bigger. (现在让我们考虑另一个示例,其中我们使用CSS font-size属性来放大文本。)

Example of the font-size property:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
 <head>
   <title>Title of the documnet</title>
   <style>
     p {
       font-size: 16px;
     }
     span {
       font-size: 19px;
     }
   </style>
 </head>
 <body>
   <p>
     This text is normal,
(这是正常的)
     <span> and this text is bigger.</span>
   </p>
