As in: # <dl> # <di> # <dt>Foo</dt> # <dd>Foo is bar</dd> # <dd>Foo is also bar</dd> # </di> # <di> # <dt>Etc.</dt> # <dd>Et cetera</dd> # </di> # </dl> I agree that the defined semantics for the DL, DI, DT, DD elements are a bit weird, but structurally they are fine, I guess. -- Anne van Kesteren <http://annevankesteren.nl/>
