Retry: <zzz> If an author would like to prevent all user-initiated viewing of hidden="" elements, a removal of the identifier (ID) or the hash-name reference would be necessary. But note that such a removal in some cases also has semantic side-effects for the element from which it is removed. For example if a @usemap attribute was removed, the <code>object</code> or <code>img</code> element from which it was removed, would change from interactive content to a normal graphic. </zzz> Leif H Silli
