here is the example code that i was testing and i got confused that every one says that we can use or we should use only one time per id but i have testes using using it multiple times but its giving me the correct output. so what should i do. it is kinda working same like class for me in this example code:
<html>
<head>
<style>
#exampleID1 { background-color: blue; }
#exampleID2 { text-transform: uppercase; }
</style>
</head>
<body>
<p id="exampleID1">This paragraph has an ID name of "exampleID1" and has a blue CSS defined background.</p>
<p id="exampleID2">This paragraph has an ID name of "exampleID2" and has had its text transformed to uppercase letters.</p>
<address id="exampleID1">

<blockquote id="exampleID1">
Here is a long quotation here is a long quotation here is a long quotation here is a long quotation here is a long quotation here is a long quotation here is a long quotation here is a long quotation here is a long quotation.
</blockquote>
</body>
</html>
please see the above code and answer me that why we should not use id selector two times in a page while its working fine.
