What do you hate most about HTML?

I hate tables... Also I hate that sometimes are not the same in all browsers... For example in IE6
 
Well that's because IE6 is very old and outdated and no longer supported, it stopped being supported pretty much the day it came out like every other Microsoft product.

I think that pretty much everyone hate tables and you can't really expect for all browsers to display page the same way, because if that would be the case, there would be only few browsers and/or no actual competition among them.
 
The fact that I don't have the patience to learn it, but yet one day want to... :cry:

HTML is the easiest language you can start with and it's base for all other languages as well (in my opinion). Without HTML you can't start PHP for example (also my opinion) 🙂
 
Remembering to close a tag or a little symbol or word can mess the whole thing up.
 
The fact that there are a lot of outdated code snippets that still work even though they're... well... outdated. Take <b> for example. or <center> or even <marquee>. I know that it's to make sure old sites display properly, but a lot of beginners just read an old tutorial and think these tags are modern and up to today's standard.
 
I don't hate HTML in particular, but it works differently on different browsers.
 
Yeah I don't have much of a problem with HTML in itself. HTML5 seems like it will bring better semantics and some cool features as well.
 
Autoplay music HTML for playing back MIDI and other types of audio files. They ever have to look up the code for stuff like scrolling text and other animated HTML like mouse rollover images.
 
Tables are very outdated but they are still absolutely perfect for some situations. They are a very easy way to set out a login/contact or whatever kind of form in a very neat manner in a very easy way.

I don't have anything about HTML <3

When it comes to CMS websites I use tables to show the content correctly the way I want them, div's are a pain in the ass sometimes.

But when I use a proper HTML theme, that I've either developed or modified I use div's. 🙂

But the one thing that annoyed me more than anything is marquees.
 
950px is standard size using world wide. but sometimes it may be 800 or 850px. it depends on the design.
