I don't think it's part of the HTML 4 specification (but I can't tell for sure, hence this message). > Jose asked me about this, and I added the button to avoid the confusion. Good. www-html-editor: Is the "hit return in the text field" behaviour part of the HTML 4 spec? I can't find it in so many words, but it's implied by this example: ================= http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/interact/forms.html DEPRECATED EXAMPLE: The following ISINDEX declaration: <ISINDEX prompt="Enter your search phrase: "> could be rewritten with INPUT as follows: <FORM action="..." method="post"> <P>Enter your search phrase: <INPUT type="text"></P> </FORM> ================= By the way... who answers www-html-editor these days? Please make sure I get some sort of response within a working day or two, if only to say "we'll think about it. Stay tuned to <errata-page> for updates." -- Dan Connolly http://www.w3.org/People/Connolly/ phone:+1-512-310-2971 (office, mobile)
