CSS is case insensitive in all matters under its control; however, some things, such as the document markup language, are beyond its control. HTML is case insensitive in most respects, except when it comes to certain attribute values, like the id and class attributes. XHTML, being XML, is always case sensitive.

Hi Friends,
XHTML , that is being XML is case sensitive. Generally, HTML is case-insensitive, but there are a few exceptions. Entity names (the things that follow ampersands) are case-senstive, but many browsers will accept many of them entirely in uppercase or entirely in lowercase; a few must be cased in particular ways.

Nope.
You can use <html> or <HTML>,both are same only. I generally prefer <html>.

The html syntax is case-insensitive because you can write a mixed letter with uppercase and lowercase.

HTML is not a case sensitive language. But generally HTML coding is written in lower case so it is better to use in lower case. Otherwise no issue whether we use lowercase or uppercase.
