<h2 id="Summary">Summary</h2>
<p>The HTML <em>summary </em>element (<code><summary></code>) is used as a summary, caption, or legend for the content of a {{HTMLElement("details")}} element.</p>
<div class="note"><strong>Note:</strong> If the <code><summary></code> element is omitted, the heading "details" will be used.</div>
<div class="note"><strong>Note:</strong> The default style for <code><summary></code> is <code>display:list-item</code> per <a href="https://html.spec.whatwg.org/multipage/rendering.html#the-details-and-summary-elements">HTML standard</a>. If the style is being changed to <code>display:block</code>, the disclosure triangle will be dismissed, which is expected. See <a href="https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1283989">Bug 1283989</a> for more information.</div>
