I think the example is a good one (and color="000000" would be too), but maybe it's a good idea to avoid deprecated features. > Perhaps using > the "width" attribute of the <img> element would be a better bet. > > <img ... width="100px"> Well, it's still presentational, though not deprecated. In other words, it's non-deprecated because the W3C wanted to be "practical" rather than logical. And it's a bit impractical example in the sense that the incorrect markup "works" on most browsers (probably simply because they stop parsing when they see a letter). You could use <a href="foo bar">, which is valid, yet syntactically incorrect (by URL syntax). -- Jukka "Yucca" Korpela, http://www.cs.tut.fi/~jkorpela/
