Well, this is my final word on the subject, it's my opinion, and by the looks of it, only my opinion, but I *personally* don't see the need for changing what we have. I believe that all use cases are currently covered by the W3C spec.I think IMHO that adding 'shorthand' functions, for functionality that already exists, and restricting that functionality adds a barrier of entry to a new developer, and produces a messy outcome. For instance, if you had a 'branding' image for your web sites, and it is always 100px x 100px, that is not good for you to have a new attribute on the <img> tag for 'branding', so that the image is always rendered 100x100, nor is it good to have a new tag <imgbrand> that renders the src as 100x100. You simply use the existing <img> tag and modify it to your specific case. Again, that is *only my opinion*, and final word on the subject. Gareth
