Arena and emacs-w3 use the class attribute to be able to specify style information across tags, like: doc.important: font.family=courier doc.important: font.size += 5 doc.important: color.text=blue Then you can use: <h1 class=important>, <a class=important>, etc. > > How about supporting the ID attribute in other than anchor > > tags? > > That is actually very easy. People have been doing this for a long time. -Bill P.
