It looks like there's some chatter around the title element versus meta title, etc. I wanted to throw in and get some clarification on its content model. If the title element is supposed to be equivalent to <meta property="title">, it occurs to me that its content model should match the meta element's production of Text* rather than PCDATA*. As far as I can ascertain the following are equivalent: <title>foo</title> <title content="foo"/> <meta property="title">foo</title> <meta property="title" content="foo"/> But it occurs to me that these two should also be equivalent: <title><em>Important!</em></title> <!-- illegal --> <meta property="title"><em>Important!</em></meta> I know that the title element in HTML 4 and the older XHTMLs are PCDATA*, but does it make sense to carry forward? I can foresee potential implications on the parts of user agents but little more than would already exist to support the format at large. Regards, -- Dorian Taylor http://doriantaylor.com/
