But then you wouldn't >want to use "Navigation bar" as title text anyway since it doesn't >say anything about the particular instance. JRG: This was my thinking, using TITLE attribute is a simple way to provide a human readable label for user agents that provide support for direct navigation to links contained in a MAP element. The use of TITLE is also consistent with tooltips implemented in some user agents. I don't think from a machine interpretation standpoint their needs to be any markup.
