Sorry, I'll try to be more ponderous in my responses from now on, to match the tone of these discussions. Whatever you and Sam work out between you, one point is clear: if there's content in the HTML5 that exists without a decent rationale for its existence, don't be surprised if it's existence is challenged. I look forward to Sam's response to this item when it becomes an issue. Hopefully you won't find it amusing. Shelley
