On 2003-02-12, Toby A Inkster uttered to Sampo Syreeni: ><h1>Daily News</h1> ><h2>Article One</h2> >[snip] ><h2>Article Two</h2> >[snip] There's no daily news. There are just parallel news, of equal importance. There's no essential reason why they should be presented in chronological sequence, for instance. ><h1>Joe Smith's Web Log</h1> ><h2>Tuesday</h2> >[snip] ><h2>Monday</h2> >[snip] Sure. But how about... <section> <h>Joe Smith's blog chronologically</h> [whathaveyou] </section> <section> <h>Joe Smiths's blog by subject</h> [whathaveyou] </section> ...or its XHTML1 counterpart? >IMHO, using more than one <h1/> element on a page is plain sloppy. How about... <h1>The case against libertarianism</h1> <div>[whathaveyou][/div] <h1>The case for libertarianism</h1> <div>[whathaveyou]</div> ? There's no common topic (the document isn't about libertarianism per se, or cases for or against it, but about a bivalent opinion about the thing; at best, some futuristic display agent might show the thing as two parallel columns without a common unifying topic, respecting the notion that people can have more than one viewpoint on a single phenomenon). -- Sampo Syreeni, aka decoy - mailto:decoy@iki.fi, tel:+358-50-5756111 student/math+cs/helsinki university, http://www.iki.fi/~decoy/front openpgp: 050985C2/025E D175 ABE5 027C 9494 EEB0 E090 8BA9 0509 85C2
