[Bug 7724] I would like to know: what is to become of the A element’s NAME attribute? I validated a HTML5 website that I am working this Wednesday (2009-09-23) which contained an A element with a NAME attribute: the W3C Markup Validator did not mind one bit. Howe from bugzilla@wiggum.w3.org on 2009-09-28 (public-html-bugzilla@w3.org from September 2009)

@Simon:

Thank you for your reply. Somehow, I overlooked the <a
href="http://www.w3.org/TR/html5/Overview.html#warnings-for-obsolete-but-conforming-features">the
relevant part of the spec</a>.

I'll take your advice on filing a bug with the W3C Validator. Thanks again!
