Claims that most accessibility problems vanish with proper HTML and cites a recent scan finding 199 of top 200 sites have invalid HTML. Recommends using browser-native controls instead of clickable divs — use native button or anchor — and tests with an HTML validator, MDN, the ARIA authoring practices guide, plus small quizzes (games) to learn. Notes about 112 (≈114) HTML tags as a concrete target for practical knowledge.
