79. Basically, the DOCTYPE describes the HTML that will be used in your page. Browsers also use the DOCTYPE to determine how to render a page. Not including a DOCTYPE or including an incorrect one can trigger quirks mode. The kicker here is, that quirks mode in Internet Explorer is quite different from quirks mode in Firefox (and other browsers ...
The main use of anchor tags - <a></a>- is as hyperlinks. That basically means that they take you somewhere. Hyperlinks require the hrefproperty, because it specifies a location. Hash: A hash - `#` within a hyperlink specifies an HTML element id to which the window should be scrolled.
On a side note, only html, css and javascript should be used. Example: <p>Rule number 1: Please be respectful in our community.</p> I would want a hover on the word respectful that displays a text above it with a definition.
The Document Type Definition is a standard for a specific XML or SGML document. XML and SGML themselves doesn't have much of a schema or a very specific set of rules aside from how tags and attributes work in general. You can think of a DTD a description of the rules for a particular kind of document (like HTML, SVG or MathML).
1. I would use a two-column table since you are not defining anything in your two examples (you are displaying key:value type information). The dl tag (in term of semantics) is used for definitions exclusively or descriptions. For example, some people comment their code using <dl> tags.
Link to the MDN article on lists (taken from comment below): HTML lists. Link to the HTML5 W3C ul spec: HTML5 ul. Note that a ul element may contain exactly zero or more li elements. The same applies to HTML5 ol. The description list (HTML5 dl) is similar, but allows both dt and dd elements. More notes: dl = definition list. ol = ordered list ...
HTML, historically, has mixed up semantics with formatting. Font tags and tables being the worst examples. The move to CSS for the formatting and the stripping of a lot of the pure formatting tags out of XHTML restores, somewhat, the separation of meaning from formatting.
dt, dd { display: inline; } dd:after { content:"\a"; white-space: pre; } This is similar to Navaneeth's solution above, but using this approach, the content won't line up as in a table, but the dd will follow the dt immediately on every line regardless of length.

Provide space the same as a regular space. Correct syntax : (must add a semi-colon at the end) is a character entity for a non-breaking space. You can use it either inside the container tag or just after closing the tag: <!--Inside container tag-->. <p>Text Text</p>. <!--After closing the tag-->.
Absolute URLs are complete URLs, and can be resolved independently. Relative URLs are only a part of a URL, and require another URL to be completed and resolved. This other URL is generally the URL of the webpage that the relative URL appears on. Relative URLs must always resolve to absolute URLs in order to be loaded.
