The <details> element, introduced more than five years ago, enables users to toggle content visibility and can include various HTML elements like text, images, and links. While initially viewed as potentially inaccessible due to hidden content, browser updates have improved functionality. Chrome now supports in-page searching even for closed <details> elements, while Firefox and Safari have differing capabilities—Firefox allows matching searches only when open and Safari skips closed content altogether. This makes it essential for developers to understand browser compatibility.
The <details> element allows for content toggling and can hold various HTML elements, providing versatile user interaction, though accessibility varies across browsers.
The default label of the <details> is 'details', but it can be customized using the <summary> element, offering flexibility in presentation.
