it'll be in the next version of the spec. We went back and forth on this as a group -- the reasoning was that whether something was shown in a window 1 line high and 30 characters wide vs 3 lines and 80 chars was a presentation/style attribute. We've however concluded after examining this issue further that there is more than presentation when the author says <<textarea> for instance it's conveying the semantics that the author expects the user to type in more than a few characters --thus helping to distinguish the body of an email from its headers. The version of the UI draft therefore calls these controls <input> and <textarea> >>>>> "Roman" == Roman Huditsch <r.huditsch@hico.com> writes: Roman> Hi again!
