From: Hakon Lie <Hakon.Lie@sophia.inria.fr> | I've added the $HTML_ERROR selector to the list of proposed | environment variables in the last CSS draft specification [1]. But, | that whole section is under fire. Among the strongest charges against | it is the possible introduction of asymmetry ("the user can do this, | but not the author"). And, we probably wouldn't want authors to turn | off the flagging of errors. --- Actually, it might be perfectly reasonable for an author to turn off error-flagging (if, for instance, the current version of the document is incomplete or is a pre-existing, non-conforming document), so long as the reader is allowed to override that choice. scott -- scott preece motorola/mcg urbana design center 1101 e. university, urbana, il 61801 phone: 217-384-8589 fax: 217-384-8550 internet mail: preece@urbana.mcd.mot.com
