Answer 1

&lt;b&gt; and &lt;/b&gt; are formating tags: they CANNOT have arguments.

Answer 2

&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.website.com&quot;&gt;this is a link&lt;/a&gt;

It shows text that when you click on it it shows a website.

It is HTML and will only show when you save it in a .html file and view it with a webbrowser. HTML is used for creating webpages.

CSS is used to style a webpage made with HTML.

Answer 3

the name and id attributes are basically the same thing. the name attribute is for older browsers; it was just included for backwards compatibility.

(idly put, backwards compatibility enables both old and new browsers view your web page with the least possible difference in terms of style and functionality).

HTML 4.01 defined the name attribute. however, with the advent of xhtml, the id attribute became the new standard. you can study/clarify this further by clicking on my sources.

Answer 4

You do NOT use names or ids for the formatting tags. You use it to assign an identity to sections of a page like &lt;div&gt;s so that you can use css to format them. They are also used to identify fields in forms in order to be able to read which data came from which field.
