It’s been a very busy past few days. Today I thought I would bring you all a quick blogging tip. Today’s blogging tip is on how to strikethrough (strike-through) text.
The html tags to show a strike-through a word are <strike> and </strike>.
Ex: <strike>Your strikethrough text</strike> would look like Your strikethrough text.
You can also achieve the strikethrough effect by wrapping whatever part of your text you want strikedthrough in ’s’ tags which look like this: <s>Your strikethrough text</s>.
Note that the <s> and <strike> elements are not supported in XHTML, therefore you may want to use <del> instead.
Ex: <del>Your strikedthrough word </del>
In CSS the code is <span style=”text-decoration: line-through;”> Word to strike through</span>
I hoped you enjoyed this blogging tip. Let me know if you would like to see other short tips like this.

WordPress has a capability feature that allows you to click a button if you’re using their visual editor, which I’m not because it messes up the formatting I want for my posts.
I don’t often use the strikethrough feature, though. I generally just delete the original text.
Take care!
