<logo> sounds nice to me. As far as we move onto standarized browsers and mobile devices as the way we connect to the web, the proposed <logo> could be equal to the reference or representation shown in _svg=icon _or_ link-rel="ico"_ Just thinking. --- Delfi Ramirez My digital signature [1] +34 633 589231 delfin@segonquart.net [2] twitter: delfinramirez IRC: segonquart Skype: segonquart [3] http://segonquart.net [4] http://delfiramirez.info [5] On 2015-06-30 11:48, Martin Janecke wrote: > On 30.06.15 03:18, Garrett Smith wrote: > On 6/29/15, Barry Smith <bearzteez@live.com> wrote: From: "Garrett Smith" <dhtmlkitchen@gmail.com> Hey Garrett, My apologizes for not replying until now. When I posted my reply to the "Site-Wide Heading Element" thread, you were right and I should have posted a more complete example. Here is what I should have given as an example: <header id="banner"> <script src="scripts/header.js" type="text/javascript"></script> <noscript> <div class="styledText"> <div class="letterM">M</div> <div class="word">y</div> </div> <div class="styledText"> <div class="letterW">W</div> <div class="word">eb</div> </div> <div class="styledText"> <div class="letterS">S</div> <div class="word">ite</div> </div> </noscript> </header> Using the <div> element for purely stylistic purposes. Placing them within the <noscript> element displays the exact same header as is in the embedded <script> element, but without the additional animation used in the javascript file. I would use an H1 with text-transform : capitalize and avoid using divs and javascript. I agree with avoiding JavaScript. I am not sure about text-transform, because I don't know which styling the author had in mind. He may want to color every word's first letter differently. <div> is actually a neutral "block" element. The neutral "inline" element <span> would seem like the better choice to wrap letters or single words in the example. But you could wrap the whole line into one <div>. I would not use <h1> because "My Website" is neither a heading for the content of the page (unless maybe on the front page or a sitemap) nor for a section of the page. It could be intended as a title for the whole website, i.e. all its pages together, or as some kind of logo or branding. I don't think we have a dedicated element for either of these interpretations. Let's assume we would introduce a new element with the meaning "title for the entirety of pages of a website". How would this be interpreted, if such an element is used with different content on different pages of the same website? I think such an element would cause inconsistencies all the time. It isn't a good idea. Let's assume we would introduce a new element with the meaning "logo, branding". What would its benefits be compared to <div>? And would authors still want to use it if add-blockers get a little more aggressive and offer the option to block logos?
