  • The blink element is a non-standard presentational HTML element that indicates to a user agent that the page author intends the content of the element to blink (that is, alternate between being visible and invisible). The element was introduced in Netscape Navigator and has some support in other web browsers, but support for the feature is absent from Internet Explorer. Despite the element being initially popular amongst personal homepages, it has since fallen out of favor due to its overuse and the difficulty it presents in reading. The tag achieved notoriety for being extremely user-unfriendly. Lou Montulli is credited as the inventor of the blink tag, although he did merely give the idea without writing any actual code. He also stated that he considers the blink tag to be "the worst thing I've ever done for the Internet".
