Hi, the text about the "command concept" here: http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/multipage/interactive-elements.html#concept-command states: "Once a command is defined, other parts of the interface can refer to the same command". On reading that, I thought the spec intended to allow several buttons/links/interactive features in a page to refer back to one command (thus "inherit" that command's disabled/checked/hidden states to the extent they would make sense for that element). The spec doesn't actually seem to enable this though. If I do <menu><command id="c" onclick="foo()" title="Do foo action"></command></menu> and want a <button> elsewhere to represent that command, how do I link the <button> element to the <command>? Did I misunderstand the concept? -- Hallvord R. M. Steen, Core Tester, Opera Software http://www.opera.com http://my.opera.com/hallvors/
