Wouldn't standardizing the *relationship* attribute value make more sense? I realize that very few browsers support rel currently, but even fewer support the standardized skip-the-headers anchor name, so we may as well standardize a value of the attribute intended for precisely this purpose: expressing the relationship between ends of a link. -Chris -- <!NOTATION SGML.Geek PUBLIC "-//Anonymous//NOTATION SGML Geek//EN"> <!ENTITY crism PUBLIC "-//O'Reilly//NONSGML Christopher R.
