HTML is not case sensitive.
The content whose structure the HTML describes may be case sensitive in
certain languages (such as English) where there is such a thing as case
(unlike other languages, such as most South East Asian ones (and especially
Chinese and its derivatives (where there are not even any "letters")) where
there is no concept corresponding to upper and lower case) but the HTML bit
(the stuff inside the start and end tags, the attributes and so on) is not,
with the exception of the value of some of the attributes, such as in the
case of href="example.com" where "example.com" may or may not be case
sensitive depending on which operating system the server is running, however
one could actually argue that the "example.com" bit is actually part of the
content, even though it does not appear as content within an element but
rather as the value of an attribute.
