Or is it a feature? It's not really a bug. The HTML 3.2 specification does not allow a HR to be within a H1. The piece of HTML code you give is not correct. Some browsers display it one way, some other another way. Amaya sticks to the W3C recommendations and tries to encourage the correct use of these recommendations. It makes some effort to recover from some HTML errors but not too much, so that you can detect and fix errors in your documents. Thanks for your comments, Vincent. ------------------------------------------------------- Vincent Quint INRIA Rhone-Alpes W3C/INRIA ZIRST e-mail: Vincent.Quint@w3.org 655 avenue de l'Europe Tel.: +33 4 76 61 53 62 38330 Montbonnot St Martin Fax: +33 4 76 61 52 07 France
