Using aside

HTML <aside> separates information which is not directly related or vital to the main article or web page. It is possible to isolate such additional content in call-out boxes or sidebars.

Example
<aside>
  <h4>Lake</h4>
  <p>Oxford lake is a lake in the state.</p>
</aside>

The example above demonstrated the usage of <aside> tag in HTML without any styling features. The following example shows how the content in <aside> can be customized with CSS:

Example
<aside>
	<p>Many movies and graphic novels have been based on this Greek hero.</p>
</aside>
