I received a paper today from one of my teachers saying I was chosen to represent my high school at an interscholastic meet in HTML and Web Page Design. I'm assuming if I do well in this, it could help me toward getting scholarships and stuff. Although I do know mostly everything about HTML, I was just curious, what are the main things I should study over?
Proper HTML I.E. <html>,<head><title>,<body>, etc.
Teachers tend to get a hardon for semantically correct markup!

[QUOTE=BlkDucky;28498829]What is your definition of improper HTML, may I ask?[/QUOTE] No closing tag on tags that need one, no body tag, etc. [editline]8th March 2011[/editline] [QUOTE=reeferdk;28498734] You should think that someone who describes himself as someone who "knows mostly everything" about html also knows the most basic ones as the ones you mentioned..[/QUOTE] Never hurts to study.
[QUOTE=supersnail11;28498912]Never hurts to study.[/QUOTE] I "learned" HTML 5-6 years ago and I still remember everything. You don't need to "study" it at all. :v:

lol HTML quiz? What are all the possible types of meta attributes?
You should have jQuery pizzazz.
HTML5 for lolz. Edit: But seriously, make sure you use valid XHTML, don't use deprecated tags, use doctype, meta, etc.
I got first, by the way. I just got back from it. Just walked around the campus with some new friends from my school from 1-4, and watched the teacher that invited me (which seems like he's the age of a college student, he looks like he's 19.) rock climb and stuff. It was all over XHTML, HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.
