3. Top 50 Frontend Developer HTML Interview Questions (Part 1)

Review essential interview questions asked by top tech companies (Google, Meta, Microsoft) to test your HTML depth.

#Interview QuestionKey Technical Answer
1 What is the difference between inline and block-level elements? Block elements take 100% width and start on a new line; inline elements only take content width and flow inline without line breaks.
2 What does `` do? Enforces standard mode rendering in modern browsers, preventing quirks mode.
3 What is the purpose of custom `data-*` attributes? Stores custom data private to the page, readable via JS `dataset`.
4 What is the difference between <script defer> and <script async>? `async` executes immediately upon download (blocking HTML parsing); `defer` executes after document parsing finishes.

Interview Code Challenge: Data Attributes & Dataset Access

<button id="user-btn" data-user-id="9401" data-role="admin">Inspect User</button> <script> const btn = document.getElementById('user-btn'); console.log(btn.dataset.userId); // "9401" console.log(btn.dataset.role); // "admin" </script>
