Hello, ECMAScript is not a W3C Recommendation, it is an ECMA standard. It is not W3C's role to recognize ECMAScript other than as a standard. If you mean "Will ECMAScript work with HTML?" the answer is "yes" because HTML allows you to use any scripting language. You must, however, specify the MIME type of the language with the "type" attribute of the SCRIPT element. I don't know the MIME type for ECMA script, but you might consult http://www.ecma.ch/ and follow the links for standard ECMA-262. I hope this answers your question. - Ian -- Ian Jacobs / 401 Second Ave. #19G / New York, NY 10010 USA Tel/Fax: (212) 684-1814 Email: jacobs@w3.org
