We need a UA-specific hotkey for displaying the content of the title attribute in the same separate (yellow) popup window as for the mouseover operation. HTML5 spec definitely should be more precise + complete here. In Lynx the "title" content could be displayed e.g. in Lynx status area on request. - Stefan -----Original Message----- From: wai-xtech-request@w3.org [mailto:wai-xtech-request@w3.org] On Behalf Of Laura Carlson Sent: Dienstag, 28.
