Alternative for <blink>

Question

The tag was never an official standard, and is now completely abandoned by all browsers.

Is there a standards compliant way of making text blink?

Answer 1

No, there isn't in HTML. There is a good reason why the developers chose to go out of their way to remove support for an element whose implementation was otherwise untouched for upwards of a decade.

That said... you could emulate it using a CSS animation, but if I were you, I wouldn't risk CSS animations being axed due to being abused in this manner :)
