Yes, but how many of them have TITLE attributes? That's the only question relevant to analyzing Ian's proposal. I would guess almost none, since currently the TITLE attribute doesn't "do" anything. I strongly support Ian's proposal. If one sees one of the purposes for embedded stylesheets as overriding rules in a linked stylesheet (as I do), then it could be very useful. My opinion on Ian's question, BTW, is that his proposal in no way disagrees with the current HTML specification. HTML, as it exists today, does not describe when the contents of the STYLE element are to be used. David L.
