I don't see how. Practically every possible syntactical 
construction is covered by, and appears illustrated in the W3C's 
recommendations, such as the HTML 4.01 Specification. see 
http://www.w3.org

But then again, ever increasingly with regard to copyright 
related (& other matters), it seems even the most atrociously, 
insultingly, ridiculous is possible in/by the U.S.A.
