I wouldn't worry about it, just learn as you go :)

Browsers that are obsolete and only understand a very limited and buggy 
subset of Web technology. The most typical one is Internet Explorer.

XML has this simple piece of technology called namespaces. They allow 
you to mix multiple languages in the same document and still know the 
difference between for instance XHTML's <title> and SVG's <title>. 
Unfortunately some tools and some small parts of the XML architecture do 
not know about them, which causes problems.

The line that contains <!DOCTYPE> at the start of the document, it's 
quite useless.

Textpad is great indeed but I don't have time to write a clip file.
