Well besides the fact that fragment ids cannot start with a number nor contain a colon, you have to consider the problem of multiple unequal representations. In this example equivalent content is not at the same time offset. Clicking the link should take you to the relevant place whether the UA is rendering the video, the audio or the transcript: <p>You <a href="#gegenschein">see the gegenschein</a> if you really squint.</p> <video src="video-with-visual-splash.mpeg"> <fragment-position for="#splash" time="00:00" /> <fragment-position for="#gegenschein" time="02:13" /> <audio src="audio-with-spoken-splash.aiff"> <fragment-position for="#splash" time="00:00" /> <fragment-position for="#gegenschein" time="02:24" /> <!-- transcript fallback --> <section id="splash"><p>Produced by Foo Corporation</p></section> ? <section id="gegenschein"> ? </audio> </video> - Nicholas. -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
