An HTML element can have one or more classes (in the class
attribute, separated by spaces). Several different elements may have the same class or common classes.
An HTML element can have an identifier (the id
attribute). An Identifier is unique, two elements cannot have the same identifier (in the field, this may happen but it is an error that can lead to edge effects). Duplicated identifiers will be indicated in our detailed analysis reports.
