Julian Reschke: > note that HTML5 (via DOMCORE) closed the door on extending the identifier format, because it makes pretty much everything a legal id. Do you mean this bit? <http://www.w3.org/TR/domcore/#concept-id>: >> An element has an ID if it has an id attribute whose value is not the empty string. >> The ID is that attribute's value. That doesn’t seem to say anything about the use of IDs in fragment identifiers, where they could be percent-escaped as necessary. That means <a id="foo=bar"> should be referenced by #foo%3Dbar and not by #foo=bar The “scroll to the fragment identifier” algorithm currently described in HTML5 could (and probably should) be extended in step 7 to support other methods than simple IDs, names and keywords. <http://www.w3.org/TR/html5/Overview#scroll-to-the-fragment-identifier> Note that there is a reference to RFC 3023 for HTML documents with an XML MIME type. This in turn mentions (a WD of) XPointer. <http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3023#page-15>
