That's true, though there's <param/>, but currently <caption/> is only valid inside <table/>, thus it should^Wmight be possible to allow it directly inside <object/>. <h/> in contrast isn't applicable here, because it really could be alternate content. Nevertheless, I'd be happy with a caption *attribute*, too, but think it breaks the concept shown in <section><h/></section> and <table><caption/><table>. Plus, title almost is just that, but there's no way to use it with CSS's display:caption or caption-side. Christoph
