It is a great step in right direction. But: FIRSTLY: A problem in your proposed text is the word "both". I feel that the requirement to use both @lang and xml:@lang was specified in the first paragraph of section '7.2 Language Attributes'. Therefore, to repeat in this note that _both_ has to be used, feels unecessary - and also makes it seem as if the requirement to use both is linked ot the meta element (instead of being a general rule) . I would suggest the following two-step solution to these wording problems: 1) The very first paragraph of section 7.2 currently BEGINS: "When using language attributes". Let it instead begin like this: "When SPECIFIYNG THE language MAPPING OF AN ELEMENT, [then ...]" 2) W.r.t. your new note, change the last bit, after the comma: FROM: "polyglot markup must use both the lang and xml:lang attributes." TO: "then it is REQUIRED to specify the language mapping of the root element." SECONDLY: Before the comma, your new note currently says: "If polyglot markup uses the http-equiv attribute on the <meta> element," Comments/Changes: 1) please work/insert 'Content-Language' into that statement. Otherwise the statement is meaningless. 2) please rewrite the entire part before the comma like so: "Whenever the http-equiv Content-Language <meta> element specifies the language of the root element, [then it is REQUIRED {see proposed text above}]." 3) After the full stop, add this: "The meta content-language element according to HTML5 specifices the language of the root element whenever its @content attribute contains no more and no less than exactly one language tag." (NOTE: Currently HTML5 only permits no more an no less than a single language tage inside content-language. But depending on ISSUE-88, it can be permitted with both less and more. http://www.w3.org/html/wg/tracker/issues/88 ) -- Configure bugmail: http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
