I know that the HTML <link> tag is used for attatching stylesheets, but looking at the W3CSchools tag reference, it has many other values for the rel attribute. I’ve looked all over the place, but I can’t for the life of me find a place that describes in detail what the other values do and how they work. Can anyone send me to the right place or explain it themselves?

I know that the link tag supplies other pages that relate to the current document, but how are they used? For example, how are the first, prev, and next relationships used?

    I know two prominent common uses:

    • With rel="stylesheet" to reference external CSS style sheets

    • With rel="favicon" to reference browser favicons

    Additionally, there are

    • Forward and reverse links (rel="next")

    • Links to alternative resources for search engines (rel="alternate")

    Check the W3C Reference: Links in HTML documents for details on stylesheet, and the latter two.
