Yes it's one of the issues of HTML/XHTML which has different implications: * The semantic of XHTML/HTML is not defined as a conformance requirement. Related: http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-qa/2004Oct/0008 It's a very difficult topic that I could explain a little bit more if people need it. * How do we explain Semantics of HTML/XHTML? * Do we need a best practices guide? * Should this best practices guide be part of an XHTML Specification? or a separate document? or part of a collective effort for example done here on this mailing-list? -- Karl Dubost - http://www.w3.org/People/karl/ W3C Conformance Manager *** Be Strict To Be Cool ***Received on Thursday, 28 October 2004 11:49:17 GMT
