Hello,

usually I write all my tags and attributes in small caps

How in the world do you write tags and attributes in small caps?

Now someone is asking me if HTML allows tags and attributes to be written in capital letters.
I do not know the answer to that.

Tag and attribute names are case-insensitive in HTML, except in the case of XHTML, which follows the rules of XML, which means they are case-sensitive--and in HTML, the standard tag and attribute names are defined as lower-case.
