If everyone did that, we would have a _lot_ less problems on the web ... Og by the way, I've found http://www.htmlhelp.com/ to be very helpful as a reference on HTML and style sheets. In particular, http://www.htmlhelp.com/reference/html40/alist.html contains a list of all HTML tags, each of them with comprehensive explanations, including which things are widely supported by browsers and which are not, potential problems, links to the actual DTD specification etc. There's also "selfhtml", but I don't like it, I don't know why. Must be a matter of taste. YMMV. Just my 0.02 Euro.
