Introduction
The HTML and AUI Toolkit for Confluence (HAT) plugin provides macros that will place HTML tags on your page.
Some of those macros have a body. The content you put into the body will be wrapped into the HTML tag you chose. Other macros will not provide a body when the tag doesn't have on either, e.g. the <img> tag.
Other than similar plugins, HAT reacts to automatically created content that Confluence adds to macro bodies and strips it where necessary.
In your macro browser you can identify them by the logo on the left.
Confluence comes with a whole lot of user interface elements. They are not available for your pages but rather are used in the Confluence GUI itself.
The "HTML and AUI Toolkit for Confluence" plugin makes several of them available to be used on your pages.
The selection includes those that serve a visual purpose.
In your macro browser you can identify them by the logo on the left.

The following AUI macros are included:

HTML Macros
Due to the criticality of some of the macros, a few of them are disabled per default when installing the plugin. The administator can enable them manually if it is useful or required for your Confluence instance.
How to enable macros after installation
Macros can be easily enabled or disabled after the plugin installation in the Add-on Manager of Confluence.
