Usage considerations

Using the text parameter

• A tag will not render if no text is specified.
• Any tabs, line breaks, and leading or trailing spaces are trimmed. Spaces between words are trimmed down to one space.
• If the text is too long to display within a tag, the text is truncated. The full text is shown on hover.
