I'm sitting here hacking Mosaic code so that it can understand URCs and it occurs to me that a very powerful addition to the Anchor tag would be a META attribute that specifies meta-information that is not within the document itself. Its arguement would be a URI similar to HREF. It could be required to only make sense when included with a HREF but it would be more interesting to let it act as an HREF itself. This last option is debatable since many believe that in the last case it is then a document and not meta-information. But that is another mailing list... Example: <A HREF="http://www.gatech.edu" META=http://www.gatech.edu/home.info">This is our homepage</A> In this example the first URL is the actual page. The second tells you things about it like who did it, last modified time, cost, etc.... Comments? -MM -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Life is a game.
