In this article, we will know the HTML <strike> tag, along with understanding its implementation through the example. The <strike> tag defines a strike or line through Text. This tag creates a cut line in the text. This tag is depreciated from HTML 5. Now, the <del> tag is used instead of this tag.
Syntax:
<strike> Contents </strike>Note: This tag is not supported in HTML5, instead of this tag, we can use HTML del Tag or HTML ins Tag or use CSS text-decoration property.
Example 1: In this example, we simply use a strike tag on the text Hi Geeks!
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>
<!-- Strike Tag -->
<h2>
Welcome To GeeksforGeeks
</h2>
<strike>
Hi Geeks!
</strike>
</body>
</html>
Output:

<body>
<h1>
Welcome to GeeksforGeeks
</h1>
<h2>
strike Tag
</h2>
<!-- Html strike tag -->
<strike>
GeeksforGeeks
</strike>
