  This meta element will be ignored if the real HTTP header contains encoding information. It can be useful anyway, though, because it will be used if a visitor saves our page to the hard drive and looks at it locally. In that situation, there’s no web server to send HTTP headers, so the meta element will be used instead.

  There is no default encoding for HTML, so we should always make sure to specify it.

  The purpose of HTML is to mark up the semantics of a document, and — to some extent — to show the structure of its content. HTML has nothing at all to do with the way this document looks in a browser (although browsers have a default style for each element type).

  It is semantically wrong to mark up non-tabular information as a table.

  var msg = "hello world";
  
  function foo(){    alert(msg);};
  
  foo();

  Now, if you call foo, it’ll alert hello world! But how does it know the value of msg, which wasn’t defined in the function body foo? It turns out that if the JavaScript interpreter can’t find a variable in it’s current scope, it’ll go up the scope chain and searches the parent scope until it finds the variable. In our case it finds msg in global scope.
