They share a name, and a namespace, so in my book, they're the same attribute. It's true that WAI-ARIA no longer normatively references the XHTML Role Attribute Module. I'm not entirely sure why this is, but it may be because it's expected that XHTML Role will only end up as a Note, and ARIA is aiming at being published as a Recommendation. (I don't think a Recommendation can normatively reference a Note.) -- Toby A Inkster <mailto:mail@tobyinkster.co.uk> <http://tobyinkster.co.uk>
