The HTML <rp></rp> element, or ruby parentheses, was introduced in HTML5. It is used in <ruby> elements to define what to show browsers that do not support the <ruby> element. This element was not designed to be used in Complex Ruby authoring situations. The <rp> element was meant to be a simple fallback mechanism, and it is not suited to the complexity of the Complex Ruby usage scenario.
