But this does not seem relevant here, there is no well-defined notion of "well-formed" for HTML documents. If you mean whether W3C should promote use of HTML over XHTML then that might well be so but that's not the case at the moment. CSS is more commonly used with HTML than with XHTML documents, it therefore makes sense to include HTML examples in the CSS specifications. -- Björn Höhrmann · mailto:bjoern@hoehrmann.de · http://bjoern.hoehrmann.de Weinh.
