They can't include '/' characters either...

http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/types.html#type-name

ID and NAME tokens[1] must begin with a letter ([A-Za-z]) and may be 
followed by any number of letters, digits ([0-9]), hyphens ("-"), 
underscores ("_"), colons (":"), and periods (".").

[1] The id attribute holds a NAME token
