Greetings, I'd like to report a possible bug in the experimental HTML5-checker: Very often I get the following error since I moved to HTML 5: --- Line 15, Column 5: Attribute name not allowed on element body at this point.. <body> Element-specific attributes for element body:None. --- You don't need to explain the meaning of this error message, that's perfectly clear (although there is nothing to complain about in my code: no attributes within my body tag). The strange thing is that after trying different things, stripping down the code to its essential, re-encoding in different formats, line endings etc, the error message suddenly and unexpectedly disappears, and even stranger, the original file would pass the HTML5 check without any error (as I was hoping for :-) ). This error normally causes further errors to occur, mostly within the tbody-tag. Maybe this is an encoding error. My files are encrypted in utf-8 (which is detected automatically right) and I'm working on a Mac, my pages run on a LAMP configuration. No matter from where I try, the error keeps coming up until after about 5 - 10 validations. This is just an information note but feel free to reply. Greetings
