Thank you for your answer. W3C says:
[http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/interact/forms.html]
name = cdata [CI]
This attribute names the element so that it may be referred to from style
sheets or scripts. Note. This attribute has been included for backwards
compatibility. Applications should use the id attribute to identify
elements.
So my question remains: How well do browsers support using only id?
