XHTML2's "1.1.3. XHTML 2 and Presentation" section says: # XHTML 2 takes HTML back to these roots, by removing all presentation # elements, and subordinating all presentation to style sheets. This, while technically true, does not seem completely consistent with the inclusion of the style="" attribute (in section 27 XHTML Style Attribute Module). I feel that the intent of removing all presentational aspects from the language is to be applauded and would like to ask for the purely presentational style="" attribute to be removed. If it is to remain in XHTML2, however, a clear indication of its purpose should be given, so as to explain the conflict between its presence and the sentiment of section 1.1.3. -- Ian Hickson U+1047E )\._.,--....,'``. fL http://ln.hixie.ch/ U+263A /, _.. \ _\ ;`._ ,.
