Anne, I happened to be reading your web site today, and I was disturbed to find the following : > <input usemap> > [...] > Ian Hickson made two data sets available: 1, 2. Looking through > several sites quickly reveals that most expect the image control > to act as a submit button (this is how it works in Internet > Explorer) and not as an image map at all (how it works in > Opera and Firefox). As a result, HTML5 dropped the feature. Given that this group has not even agreed the Design Principles yet, let alone started to make firm decisions concerning the HTML 5 Specification, is it not somewhat irresponsible of you to make a public statement that a certain feature has been dropped from HTML 5 ?
