Are you suggesting that either 1. <title>...</title> and <meta name="title" content="..."> be treated equivalently, and possibly that <title> should be made obsolete in favour of the meta element title? 2. That when <title> is encountered, the parser should convert it to <meta name="title" content="...">, and thus insert a META element into the DOM? 3. Something else entirely? If you meant option #1, then it's not clear what problem that would solve, and it would also introduce unnecessary complexity with, e.g., having to deal with conflicts in the case that both were specified. If you meant option #2, then that seems like it would be a nightmare to implement, causing all kinds of compatibility issues, while also not solving any clear problem. If you meant something else, then please more clearly elaborate. -- Lachlan Hunt - Opera Software http://lachy.id.au/ http://www.opera.com/
