Summary
The HTML Strikethrough Element (<strike>) renders text with a strikethrough, or a line through it. This element is obselete in HTML5. Use the <del> instead if the element is marking an edit (deleted text), otherwise use an <s> element.
<strike> has been deprecated in HTML 4 and XHTML 1, and obsoleted in HTML5. If semantically appropriate, i.e., if it represents deleted content, use the <del> instead; in all other cases use an <s> element.Attributes
This element has no other attributes than the global attributes, common to all elements.
DOM interface
This element implements the HTMLElement interface.
Implementation note: up to Gecko 1.9.2 inclusive, Firefox implements the HTMLSpanElement interface for this element.
Example
<strike>Today's Special: Salmon</strike> NO LONGER AVAILABLE<br /> <s>Today's Special: Salmon</s> SOLD OUT
Result
Today's Special: Salmon NO LONGER AVAILABLE
Today's Special: Salmon SOLD OUT
