Deprecated
This feature has been removed from the Web standards. Though some browsers may still support it, it is in the process of being dropped. Do not use it in old or new projects. Pages or Web apps using it may break at any time.
Non-standard
This feature is non-standard and is not on a standards track. Do not use it on production sites facing the Web: it will not work for every user. There may also be large incompatibilities between implementations and the behavior may change in the future.
The HTML Blink Element (<blink>) is a non-standard element causing the enclosed text to flash slowly.
Warning: Do not use this element as it is non-standard and deprecated. Blinking text is frowned upon by several accessibility standards and the CSS specification allows browsers to ignore the blink value.
DOM interface
This element is unsupported and thus implements the HTMLUnknownElement interface.
