What happens in those UAs when both > element content and the alt attribute is present? Should I say "doesn't break some existing UAs". In other words, with XML those UAs do not inappropriately present the fallback content. With text/html we had amore severe problem where this would break with all visual UAs. So how ever best to word that pro, please go ahead and and away.. I haven't tested any of the aural UAs yet. I'd be happy to hear what you find out if you've tested anything else. Take care, Rob
