As HTML code reviewer, sometimes reading an html code I see something like this:
<form class='form' …>
Even if it is allowed, I am wondering if this kind of stuffs, having class name equal to the tag name, should be deprecated independently by the context.
P.S.:
possible context:
<form class='form'>
</form>
<div class='form'>
</div>
Class names should be considered as being selectable by authors or communities of authors by agreement. I don’t think it’s appropriate to “deprecate” names just because they look odd on first sight. The word “form” may have different meanings in different languages and communities. There might be all kinds of reasons for something apparently odd like
<form class="form">even if class names have been taken from English. In inspecting code, such constructs should raise question, not trigger automatic disapproval.(I almost proposed closing the question as non-constructive. But maybe there is some value in pointing out the problems in the assumptions behind the question.)
