I agree that a lot of people actually need such a feature since they want to produce a wellformed parse tree, but i disagree with your suggestion. If their value is equal Tidy can just throw away one of the attribute definitions, but if they are unequal, Tidy has to decide which attribute definition rules. Several Browsers including MSIE 6 use the _first_ value and throw the other values away, Tidy should adopt this behaivour upon user option. -- Björn Höhrmann | mailto:bjoern@hoehrmann.de | http://www.bjoernsworld.de am Badedeich 7 | Telefon: +49(0)4667/981028 | http://bjoern.hoehrmann.de 25899 Dagebüll | PGP Pub.
