In the time of 31 Jul 97:7:55, Dave Raggett pronounced: > Basically unknown tags are invalid. But the HTML specification > sets user expectations as how such tags should be handled.. > User agents should ignore unknown attributes, start and end tags.. For a to spec parser however the unknown tags require some sort of content model, otherwise parsing can't actually continue. Or should we generally put a special rule in the SGML parser that scans for CLOSE-TAGS outside of their normal context? I'm just afraid to make these changes since I don't want to inadvertently break the SGML parsing. __ | Mortar: Advanced Web Development <http://bigpic.com/mortar/> | Neil St.Laurent neil@bigpic.com | Big Picture Multimedia
