Hi Dinoguy1000,
I made a change to the PdfHandler page [0] and then realized you had previously undid the change I had made. I almost undid my change, but I think the change is actually beneficial so wanted to let you know and get your thoughts.
I changed <kbd> to <code> for readability and in your previous edit going the other way, you pointed to the Wikipedia article on HTML elements [1]. To me, the version with kbd [2] is much harder to determine which text the user needs to type (or copy) and the version with code [3] is much easier (to copy as well).
Interested in your thoughts.
Regards,

Hi Bryan, I switched that text from <code>
to <kbd>
because kbd
is the semantic element for keyboard input - that is, for text the user is supposed to type, into a terminal or command line or the like. I do agree that its visual style isn't as nice as the style for code
, though; it might be worth asking if kbd
can be styled the same as code
in MediaWiki:Gadget-site.css.
