With the useful and needed functionality and the neat little stuffs that can be done with Ruby annotation, along with its clear presence in HTML5, I wonder: Where ruby has gone? Right now IE does basically a fine job with <ruby> but doesn't do <rp> and no longer needs <rb>. Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Opera do not break when <ruby> is encountered. Fallback is one line of inline text. Just as a simple example, try this: <ruby> WWW <rt>World Wide Web</rt></ruby> Default styling works fine in IE. Of course added CSS should work fine on ruby elements. Thanks to All and Best Regards, Joe > > -- manu >
