3,583 Pointspage can only have one element with the same ID name?
we assigned the primary-content ID to <div>, and then I tried to assign it to random <p> and it worked .. so please, could anyone explain to me why cant I use the same ID name for more than one element?
is it because of the other functions we use the ID for? like #top function?
thanks for your answers, Bára
