But that won't tell you whether these elements are useful. Other elements like rbc are not in common use due to lack of implementations and yet other elements like basefont might be in common use but that does not make the element useful. An interesting question however would be e.g. the use of the var and samp elements in W3C TRs, but the result would only be meaningful if you include information on why these elements have not been used. -- Björn Höhrmann ˇ mailto:bjoern@hoehrmann.de ˇ http://bjoern.hoehrmann.de Weinh.
