Question

Which one is correct syntax?

(a) <p id=”1td”>

(b) <p id=”td”>

(c) <p id=”%td”>

(d) <p id=”#td”>

I have been asked this question during an interview.

The doubt is from HTML5: Beyond Markup topic in chapter HTML Markup, Forms, Video, Audio & Other Multimedia of HTML

Answer 1

The correct choice is (b) <p id=”td”>

The explanation is: <p id=”td”> is the correct syntax for id type declaration. Id attribute’s value should start with a letter or an underscore. We cannot use any number or other character for defining name of the id.
