Section 5.3.7 states: [BACKGROUND_IMAGE_SUPPORT] Do not use background images unless you know the device supports them. (Normative) I don't see any reasoning in the document to justify this one, and I can't think of any myself. Won;t a device that doesn't support background images simply ignore them without any detrimental effects? I can;t think of any examples in practice where the background image was a critical part of the content. This feels like it would degrade gracefully. At a minimum, I would ask that this normative rule be explained more. But if there's no good explanation for this, then this rule could simply be dropped. -- Elliotte Rusty Harold elharo@metalab.unc.edu XML in a Nutshell 3rd Edition Just Published! http://www.cafeconleche.org/books/xian3/ http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ISBN=0596007647/cafeaulaitA/ref=nosimReceived on Sunday, 8 January 2006 20:08:19 GMT
