It is you that wants me to do something,

I do not read code marked as incorrect as a source to your intentions.
I am not your intended father in law.

Pehaps some browsers are indulgent to your errors. But not in the way you 
described. Such browsers only reference the first of this same names id-
group. 

Believing that therefore it is a right and safe way to programme
is ludicrous.

Programming may be paved by good intentions indeed.
Experience and clear spec-knowledge are more important.

Meaning without css and javascript?

In html, id-referencing is only used in <label for='...'>,
I believe.
