More to the point, if an XML element is not in the http://www.w3.org/ 1999/xhtml namespace, it isn't an (X)HTML element (even if it has a local name that is also used in HTML) and what to do with the element is out of the scope of the HTML 5 spec. It would be inappropriate for HTML 5 to ban elements form other namespaces in the XML serialization. -- Henri Sivonen hsivonen@iki.fi http://hsivonen.iki.fi/
