| `<content>` | An obsolete part of the [Web Components](/en-US/docs/Web/API/Web_components) suite of technologies—was used inside of [Shadow DOM](/en-US/docs/Web/API/Web_components/Using_shadow_DOM) as an insertion point, and wasn't meant to be used in ordinary HTML. It has now been replaced by the {{HTMLElement("slot")}} element, which creates a point in the DOM at which a shadow DOM can be inserted. Consider using {{HTMLElement("slot")}} instead. |
| {{HTMLElement("dir")}} | Container for a directory of files and/or folders, potentially with styles and icons applied by the user agent. Do not use this obsolete element; instead, you should use the {{HTMLElement("ul")}} element for lists, including lists of files. |
