I 'unlearnt' the HTML4 EVERYTHING IN CAPITAL LETTERS when trying to code XHTML 1.x before switching to HTML5 and I find it more pleasant to read. You can also check the standard, available online at no charge: "In XHTML, tag names are case sensitive and are usually defined to be written in lowercase. In HTML, however, tag names are case insensitive and may be written in all uppercase or mixed case, although the most common convention is to stick with lowercase. The case of the start and end tags do not have to be the same, but being consistent does make the code look cleaner."
