Comment(by hakre):

 Some HTML Trivia:

  * attribute names are not case sensitive. (HTML 2.0)
  * The `NAMELEN' parameter in the SGML declaration (section SGML
 Declaration for HTML) limits the length of an attribute value to 1024
 characters.
  * HTML allows CDATA attributes to be unquoted provided the attribute
 value contains only letters (a to z and A to Z), digits (0 to 9), hyphens
 (ASCII decimal 45) or, periods (ASCII decimal 46)
  * An attribute specification consists of a name, an "=" and a value
 specification. The name refers to an item in an ATTLIST declaration.

 I see no attribute name in HTML (2.0, 3.2, 4.1 & xhtml 1.0) that conatins
 a dash or dot.
