While HTML5 parsing as defined today supplies namespace information for each element and attribute name, it doesn't supply xmlns:foo-based namespace mapping context for resolving prefixes in attribute content on the application layer. Changing HTML5 parsing to supply this context would mean a parsing- level change for the benefit of RDFa. None of the features drafted HTML 5 so far need this. -- Henri Sivonen hsivonen@iki.fi http://hsivonen.iki.fi/
