But while I'm personally not especially fond of accesskey, it's in the same class as some other legacy markup constructs -- something we may all agree is far less than ideal, but that is already widely used in existing content. So we still need to have a more precise spec for it if we want to have a hope of UAs handling it interoperably. --Mike -- Michael(tm) Smith http://people.w3.org/mike/ http://sideshowbarker.net/ -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
