IE 7 refuses to display the page and tells that I might need some add-on to view it. This doesn't make a good impression if you are making an argument about WWW authoring. Anyway, the first example there has <span class="CopyrightText">, so it's irrelevant in this discussion. Next we have <td class="copyright"> © 2007 Radisson Hotels & Resorts. All Rights Reserved. <a href="/sectiontemplate.do?sidemenu=privacy.sidemenus§ion=privacy.home">Privacy</a> <a href="/sectiontemplate.do?sidemenu=termsandconditions.sidemenus§ion=terms.home">Terms & Conditions</a> <a href="/rad/html/sitemap.html">Site Map</a> </td> which is an example _against_ your point, since the content of the element class="copyright" is _not_ copyright information but mixed information, including a copyright notice as a part. A bit later we have: <p class="copyright"> FREE MONTH OFFER ONLY ON $24.99 UNLIMITED RESIDENTIAL PLAN. NEW SUBSCRIBERS ONLY. etc. And we have <p class="copyright"> </p> as well as <span class="copyright"><a href="http://www.themeatrix.com/about/filmfests.html"> and more...</a></span> This is actually worse than I expected. I wonder why you presented this evidence, since it clearly speaks against your point. I think there is no need for more witnesses, and I rest my case. -- Jukka "Yucca" Korpela, http://www.cs.tut.fi/~jkorpela/
