http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=8404 --- Comment #10 from Shelley Powers <shelleyp@burningbird.net> 2009-11-30 22:48:14 --- (In reply to comment #2) > PRE elements should be allowed as the subject of FIGURE, for at least one > use-case: ASCII art. > > Consider a piece of software that generates HTML versions of RFCs, using the > RFC plain text document as input. There are many RFCs where ASCII art is used > to depict some aspect of the standard in question. FIGURE is the closest > semantic element to this usage. > I don't think the pre element adds an undue burden. Again, it's something that wouldn't be used for caption, and we could then reserve another element or elements as caption, without having to create a new element, and without having to re-purpose dt/dd. -- Configure bugmail: http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug.
