This is now a different topic, therefore I changed the subject. Maybe not in the way that we define a special behaviour for nested links, but in the way that there is an alternative <mo>-like syntax for such operators, e.g. <mrow> num <mo href="...">&SomeMagicStroke;</mo> den </mrow> or <mrow style="some CSS magic"> num <mo href="...">...</mo> den </mrow> instead of <mfrac> num den </mfrac> Similar cases are msqrt and mroot, where there is no reasonable way of linking only the "root" symbol to some target. For mfenced there is the (semantically equivalent?) alternative of writing brackets as <mo>(</mo> ... <mo>)</mo>. Cheers, Christoph -- Christoph Lange, Jacobs Univ.
