It's not at all clear what you mean by "leave it alone", and I'm not sure what relevance HTML4 has in this context. Do you mean to leave it as is in the current HTML5 spec (option #2)? Or do you mean to define it as it was defined in HTML4: provide a vague hint about permitting any HTTP header field to be used in http-equiv without defining the permitted content attribute values or processing requirements? Given the clear explanation I gave for why even #3 is not a reasonable solution, why would that be any more acceptable? What use case would it address and or what problem would it actually solve? -- Lachlan Hunt - Opera Software http://lachy.id.au/ http://www.opera.com/
