Sorry. I hit the wrong button by mistake. I wasn't finished with the message. A while back the question was sent to the list asking if Strict or Transitional should be used for validating documents. Below is a link to the question. http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-dom-ts/2001Dec/0040.html The question was never answered. It has come up again due to failure of one of the tests documented below. There are some attributes that have been deprecated and will fail strict validation and pass transitional validation. How should deprecated attributes be handled? > > > 58. > file:///C:/cygwin/home/Administrator/2001/DOM-Test-Suite/build/level2/html/e cmascript/tests/alltests.html:testHTMLTableRowElement07 > failed > > "bgColorLink" > Expected #00FFFF (string) but was #00ffff (string) >The corresponding .xml document isn't valid XHTML as the bgcolor element has >been deprecated.

Got to run.
