I disagree. My homepage (link in sig) uses role="contentinfo" for three distinct elements. 1. A list of tags for the primary content of the page. 2. A table of metadata (e.g. author, created date, modified date) for the primary content of the page. 3. A footer containing a link to the CMS software that serves the page. I think each of these matches the ARIA definition of "metadata that applies to the parent document". -- Toby A Inkster <mailto:mail@tobyinkster.co.uk> <http://tobyinkster.co.uk>
