Except that they are not link types, but new elements. <navigation> is for site navigation. <article> contains the content. <aside> contains a sidebar. <footer> contains the footer (specifically, <small> inside <footer> contains the small print). Thus we don't need link types, and authors can stop using "skip" links -- user agents can instead automatically skip anything that the user wants to skip, without the author having to worry about adding in such links. -- Ian Hickson U+1047E )\._.,--....,'``. fL http://ln.hixie.ch/ U+263A /, _.. \ _\ ;`._ ,.
