Short rp Tag Tutorial

HTML rp tags can be used to define a fallback option for the browsers that have no ruby text support:

Example
<ruby>攻殻
  <rp></rp>
  <rt>こうかく</rt>
  <rp></rp>
</ruby>

You should use rp HTML tags to specify which characters need to be displayed to convey ruby text properly. In most cases, it is parentheses. If a pair of them wrap an <rt> element, each parenthesis should be surrounded by a pair of rp tags.
