Um, I don’t think any version of HTML has ever required case-sensitive tags. Only XHTML had that requirement. HTML 1.0, 2.0, 3.x, 4.x and 5 all are case-insensitive, though it is possible that early specs required UPPER case tags (there certainly were a lot of upper case tags back in the 90’s). -- 'Everything will be all right.
