This is a very good observation that I also noticed when reading the message Frank forwarded from David Brownell: > FIRST, since there's only one HTML vocabulary, it should have only > one namespace. How do you decide if XHTML has one vocabulary? I can see arguments either way, and if it isn't defined, you are allowed to interpret. "The element type <font> isn't in the strict vocabulary, so strict should have a different namespace." would seem to be a resonable statement. Steven
