Synopsis
ID=”elementIdentifier"Optional
A unique identifier that distinguishes this element from all the rest
in the document. Can be used to associate a single element with a
style rule naming this attribute value as an ID selector. Browsers
typically allow the ID attribute to be used as a
substitute for the NAME attribute to make the
element an anchor. In this case, one ID attribute
can serve double duty as a style sheet rule selector and anchor name.
An A element can have an ID assigned for
uniqueness as well as a class for inclusion within a group.
Example
<A ID="section3">Section 3</A>
Value
Case-sensitive identifier.
Default
None.
