HTML id Attribute

The HTML id attribute is used to specify a unique id for an HTML element.

You cannot have more than one element with the same id in an HTML document.

In the following example we have an <h1> element that points to the id name “myHeader”. This <h1> element will be styled according to the #myHeader style definition in the head section: Continue reading HTML id Attribute
