The purpose of the HTML 3.2 spec is to capture a sanitized version of current practice as agreed by the market leaders. We couldn't include ID in the spec as current browsers don't support hypertext links to particular IDs. As a group it made sense to us to defer ID and CLASS etc. to a future release when we would be rolling out support for style sheets. -- Dave Raggett <dsr@w3.org> tel: +1 (617) 258 5741 fax: +1 (617) 258 5999 World Wide Web Consortium, 545 Technology Square, Cambridge, MA 02139 url = http://www.w3.org/People/Raggett
