Not to quibble about such a matter but you don't necessarily need
quotes around attributes (I prefer quotes as any syntax highlighting
editor will show the values up).
http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/intro/sgmltut.html#h-3.2.2
In certain cases, authors may specify the value of an attribute
without any quotation marks. The attribute value may only contain
letters (a-z and A-Z), digits (0-9), hyphens (ASCII decimal 45),
periods (ASCII decimal 46), underscores (ASCII decimal 95), and colons
(ASCII decimal 58). We recommend using quotation marks even when it is
possible to eliminate them.
