Guidelines for Creating HTML Documents
Some guidelines to be followed while creating HTML documents are:
1. Tag names and attribute names are not case-sensitive.
2. Enclose the attribute values within double quotes.
3. Spaces between tags and content are not important. For example, <b> This text is bold </b>
and <b> This text is bold </b> are interpreted in the same way.
4. Do not use spaces between tag names and between the < and > signs. Thus, < body > or < body
> is incorrect, while <body> is correct.
