This is probably more a question of whether we should allow this in HTML then whether or not we can allow this in browsers as browsers pretty much have to support this anyway. I personally think we should allow this for cases as demonstrated by this site: http://noorderlicht.vpro.nl/ (Disclaimer: I have worked on that site three years ago.) (I agree that a global href="" attribute would not be very feasible given all the other attributes <a> has.) -- Anne van Kesteren <http://annevankesteren.nl/> <http://www.opera.com/>
