So, as with broken/wrongly nested markup, it doesn't "allow" it per se, but gives clear instructions for all implementations on how to consistently error-correct for it. Similarly for duplicate attributes, I believe it defines which one takes precedence (I want to say the last one, but again it's been a while since I delved into the HTML spec). P -- Patrick H.
