Then: <p><line>if foo</line> <line> puts bla</line> <line>end</line></p> Would be: if foo puts blaend I don't know about you, but the XHTML 2 draft did not give me this impression, although it only suggested a default rendering for visual UA's. It's description of <line> as "represents a sub-paragraph" suggests it has slightly more semantic meaning than a <span>, which should be preserved in all default renderings. Of course, "represents a sub-paragraph" also suggests to me that <line> may not be the best name -- maybe there's another tag in <line> struggling to be born :) -- Thomas 'Freaky' Hurst - freaky@aagh.net - http://www.aagh.net/ - Campbell's Law: Nature abhors a vacuous experimenter.
