HTML preprocessors can make writing HTML more powerful or convenient. For instance, Markdown is designed to be easier to write and read for text documents and you could write a loop in Pug.
In CodePen, whatever you write in the HTML editor is what goes within the <body>
tags in a basic HTML5 template. So you don't have access to higher-up elements like the <html>
tag. If you want to add classes there that can affect the whole document, this is the place to do it.
In CodePen, whatever you write in the HTML editor is what goes within the <body>
tags in a basic HTML5 template. If you need things in the <head>
of the document, put that code here.
The resource you are linking to is using the 'http' protocol, which may not work when the browser is using https.
CSS preprocessors help make authoring CSS easier. All of them offer things like variables and mixins to provide convenient abstractions.
It's a common practice to apply CSS to a page that styles elements such that they are consistent across all browsers. We offer two of the most popular choices: normalize.css and a reset. Or, choose Neither and nothing will be applied.
To get the best cross-browser support, it is a common practice to apply vendor prefixes to CSS properties and values that require them to work. For instance -webkit-
or -moz-
.
We offer two popular choices: Autoprefixer (which processes your CSS server-side) and -prefix-free (which applies prefixes via a script, client-side).
Any URL's added here will be added as <link>
s in order, and before the CSS in the editor. You can use the CSS from another Pen by using it's URL and the proper URL extention.
You can apply CSS to your Pen from any stylesheet on the web. Just put a URL to it here and we'll apply it, in the order you have them, before the CSS in the Pen itself.
You can also link to another Pen here (use the .css
URL Extension) and we'll pull the CSS from that Pen and include it. If it's using a matching preprocessor, use the appropriate URL Extension and we'll combine the code before preprocessing, so you can use the linked Pen as a true dependency.
JavaScript preprocessors can help make authoring JavaScript easier and more convenient.
Babel includes JSX processing.
Any URL's added here will be added as <script>
s in order, and run before the JavaScript in the editor. You can use the URL of any other Pen and it will include the JavaScript from that Pen.
You can apply a script from anywhere on the web to your Pen. Just put a URL to it here and we'll add it, in the order you have them, before the JavaScript in the Pen itself.
If the script you link to has the file extension of a preprocessor, we'll attempt to process it before applying.
You can also link to another Pen here, and we'll pull the JavaScript from that Pen and include it. If it's using a matching preprocessor, we'll combine the code before preprocessing, so you can use the linked Pen as a true dependency.
Search for and use JavaScript packages from npm here. By selecting a package, an import
statement will be added to the top of the JavaScript editor for this package.
Using packages here is powered by Skypack, which makes packages from npm not only available on a CDN, but prepares them for native JavaScript ES6 import
usage.
All packages are different, so refer to their docs for how they work.
If you're using React / ReactDOM, make sure to turn on Babel for the JSX processing.
If active, Pens will autosave every 30 seconds after being saved once.
If enabled, the preview panel updates automatically as you code. If disabled, use the "Run" button to update.
If enabled, your code will be formatted when you actively save your Pen. Note: your code becomes un-folded during formatting.

<title>A Tribute to Victor of Aveyron</title>

<h1>Victor of Aveyron</h1>
<h2>the true founder of special education.</h2>
</div>
<div>
<p>Jean Marc Gaspard Itard is typically credited with founding the field of special education for disabled children. However, a young boy named Victor was the true founder of this field and others, and his contributions should be recognized and commended.</p>
<a title="Victor's portrait from the front cover of the book about him." href="https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File%3AVictor_of_Aveyron.jpg" target="_blank"><img width="256" alt="Victor of Aveyron" src="https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/d/d6/Victor_of_Aveyron.jpg"/></a>
</div>
<div>
<ul>
<li>Victor lived in the small town of Aveyron, France, and it is believed that he was born around 1788.</li>
<li>Victor had been seen living in the woods as a child. Several attempts to capture him failed, because Victor would run away and return to the woods.</li>
<li>Reports are conflicting, but in 1800, Victor was either captured or willingly emerged from the woods permanently, and became a subject of study and speculation.</li>
<li>Little is known about his childhood, but it is estimated that he had been living alone in the woods without human contact for most of his life. Experts believe he may have been developmentally or psychiatrically disabled, and that he may have been abused and abandoned by his parents around the age four or five.</li>
<li>Victor could hear, but he was nonverbal, and so was taken to the National Institute of the Deaf in Paris, in order to be studied by Roch-Ambroise Cucurron Sicard. Sicard and his group the Society of Observers of Man believed that they could prove language was what differentiated humans from animals, if they were able to study Victor and teach him to speak.</li>
<li>When studying Victor did not yield the results Sicard expected, Victor was abandoned at an institution. Victor stayed there until Itard, a medical student who believed empathy and language was what differentiated humans from animals, adopted Victor in order to teach him the ability to speak and express emotion.</li>
<li>Victor learned limited spoken and written language skills under Itard's care, but experienced and expressed empathy, such as when he comforted a recently widowed housekeeper.</li>
<li>Victor died in 1828 around age 40, at the home of the widowed housekeeper he'd comforted as a child.</li>
</ul>
</div>
<div>
<p>Without Victor, Itard never could have advanced his career and research the way he did. Itard published his many observations of Victor, and is considered to have created the first special education and behavioral modification techniques. Itard was also credited with founding otolaryngology (the field of medicine concerned with the ear, nose, and throat) and the controversial field of oralism (the practice of teaching Deaf students through oral language instead of sign language).</p>
<p>Over time, experts have speculated that Victor may have been autistic or profoundly mentally ill. Experts have also posthumously criticized Itard for not attempting to teach Victor sign language.</p>
<p>Historically, people with disabilities have been exploited, abused, killed, used for entertainment, and scientifically studied and analyzed without our consent. Victor likely did not consent to being research subject, and there is no way to know if he would have consented if given the opportunity, but his vital and priceless contributions should be recognized and commended.</p>
