Not as bad as CP, though. How about making C less cryptic: CH, CHR, CHRS, CHAR, CHARS (about as long as I care to get). The only objection to such an element in general is the fear of abuse, like: <CHR CLASS=CITATION>. I want to know how this is any worse than <EM CLASS=CITATION>? Second question: does anyone know why HTML3 lost the HTML+ <EM STYLE=X> replacement for <X>? That would be relevant to this. If no one recalls, I'll try wading into the archives to see if it's there. Third question: should this be going to the html-wg list? Thanx, <mike
