I'm an idiot, and I don't talk with other designers/tech people enough to have my terminology straight. I meant ID, but was only using 'em for the first reason, and I didn't know about the second.
As a total side note, but you got me thinking about it: I used to have a great chart that (in the html days) had every tag and the compatibility with various browsers. Nowadays I'm using http://www.quirksmode.org/css/contents.html which is nice, but doesn't cover some of the lesser used browsers that create the PITA glitches. Where do you go for your compatibility info nowadays?

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
