A minor question: Is handling <whatevertag/> in HTML5 really a problem? If the tag ends with />, just note that the element is empty (ie. has no content, whether or not it is officially an empty element), and move on. _Surely_, no one out there is writing HTML using <whatevertag/> when they _dont_ mean to close the element?!?!?! (rolling my eyes :> ) But, I guess Hixie will have noticed if anyone _is_ doing that. -- bruce.miller@nist.gov http://math.nist.gov/~BMiller/
