Actually, the parsing side of xlink:href in HTML5 is a solved problem. In Gecko, the above-DOM part depends on the same code as the XML side, so xlink:href on MathML nodes is useless until the earlier accident with MathML xlink:href support in general is addressed. -- Henri Sivonen hsivonen@iki.fi http://hsivonen.iki.fi/
