The goal is to not break anything. Everything that exists today should continue working exactly as it did before. Authors will be use any tag you've ever heard of in a document and expect it to work as it's defined in the spec regarding legacy behavior / error handling that will be standardized across all browsers. Just don't expect it to validate as html5 if you do that. And don't be surprised if someone else using only valid html5 is able to build the exact same thing in less time with less effort. -- :: thyme online ltd :: po box cb13650 nassau the bahamas :: website: http://www.thymeonline.com/ :: tel: 242 327-1864 fax: 242 377 1038
