How to Use the HTML Blockquote Generator
When you need to feature a longer quotation that stands apart from your main text, the HTML <blockquote> is the perfect tool. It semantically marks the content as a quoted section and is typically displayed by browsers with indentation. Our generator makes creating a well-structured and properly attributed blockquote effortless.
Craft Your Quotation
The first step is to provide the content of the quote itself.
- Quote Text: Paste or type your quotation into this text area. A key feature of this tool is that it respects line breaks. If your quote has multiple paragraphs, simply press
Enterto create a new line. Each line will be automatically wrapped in its own<p>tag for correct formatting. - Citation (Author or Source): In this field, enter the name of the person or the title of the work you are quoting. This information will be placed in a
<footer>and<cite>tag, which is the semantically correct way to attribute a blockquote.
See Your Formatted Quote Instantly
There’s no guesswork involved. The Live Preview area immediately renders your content, showing you exactly how the blockquote will appear on a webpage. You’ll see the indentation, the paragraph breaks, and the formatted citation at the bottom, allowing you to make adjustments on the fly.
Grab the Code for Your Site
Once your quote looks perfect in the preview, you have two code options ready to go:
- Blockquote Code: This output provides the complete
<blockquote>element, including the paragraphs and the citation footer. This is the snippet you will want to copy and paste directly into your website’s content. - HTML Blockquote Code: This gives you a full, standalone HTML page containing your formatted blockquote. It’s ideal for testing or for situations where you need a complete file.
Simply click the Copy button for your desired code, and you’re ready to feature beautiful, well-formed quotes on your site.
