The problem is that not every attribute value that can be used for the name attribute is also valid as an id, not sure how to best resolve this. Option 1: The current behaviour, which does not change the id and name values but may result in invalid IDs. Option 2: Change just the id value if needed, which results in id and name not being consistent any more. Option 3: Change both the id and name values, which ensures consistency but can break links within the document, or from another document. I believe Option 1 is still the best choice, although tidy should warn about the invalid id attribute value right away, not only when running it against the document again. -- Klaus Johannes Rusch KlausRusch@atmedia.net http://www.atmedia.net/KlausRusch/
