FWIW, HTML4 does not use the NAME token forn name="". http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/interact/forms.html#adef-name-INPUT http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/multipage/association-of-controls-and-forms.html#attr-fe-name AFAICT, HTML4 says anything goes in name="", while HTML5 bans the empty string, so HTML5 actually makes the rules slightly stricter. -- Simon Pieters Opera Software
