<p>Nevertheless, the IOCCC does have certain practices that we ask authors to follow.
|
||||
Some these relate to use of markdown directly, others relate to injecting HTML
|
||||
into the markdown file.</p>
|
||||
<p>In particular there are things we ask people to please do <strong>NOT</strong> use markdown files:</p>
|
||||
<h2 id="do-not-use-name-attributes-in-html-a-tags">Do not use name attributes in HTML a tags</h2>
|

<p>Please do <strong>NOT</strong> use the HTML construct:</p>
|
||||
<pre><code> <a name="string">...</a> <=== no thank you</code></pre>
|
||||
<p>as those are <strong>NOT</strong> part of the HTML 5 standard.</p>
|
||||
<p>Instead use:</p>
|
||||
<pre><code> <div id="string">...\</div></code></pre>
|
||||
<p>where the “…” is the HTML you want to “name”. The <strong>div</strong>
|
||||
encapsulates the HTML you want to name: I.e., the target of some
|
||||
“<strong><a href=”#string”></strong>” or some other “<strong><a href=”URL#string”></strong>”

<pre><code> <div id="string">...</div></code></pre>

|
||||
<code><a href="#string"></code> or some other <code><a href="URL#string"></code>
|
||||
for the given page URL.</p>
|
||||
<p>There are certain HTML Elements that cannot have internal “<strong><div
|
||||
id=”string”>…</div></strong>”. For example you cannot do this:</p>
|
||||
<pre><code> # <div id="string">This will not work</div></code></pre>
