Well, according to the charter this WG's deliverables are to include among other things: - "Document Object Model (DOM) interfaces providing APIs for such a language." - "APIs for the manipulation of linked media." - "Editing APIs and user-driven WYSIWYG editing features." In my opinion, timer events belong in the DOM, as part of a documentation of the de facto standard Window object (which should be part of the DOM) or possibly as part of the DOM (3?) Events specification. They might not have direct influence on the document, but they are very much relevant for web applications and are the only way to time delay actions taken when handling an event without the use of busy waiting. <uri:http://www.w3.org/2007/03/HTML-WG-charter.html#deliverables> -- David "liorean" Andersson
