Jesus! I just completed a high-speed, late-night HTML test hosted by Brainbench on my knowledge of forms, HTML, frames and CSS. On the site they stated that using reference books was sort of ok - if appropriate to the situation (or something equally obscure). Of course, I'm not in the least bit sure that it was appropriate in this case, because no one mentioned that I might need them to me. Or indeed told me much about the test at all. Which might explain why I decided to do 40 questions (with a time limit of 1 1/2 minutes per question) just after midnight on a Monday evening.
