Hello, when verifying the following document: <http://wwwa1.kph.uni-mainz.de/users/ulm/test/testaddress.html> with doctype ISO/IEC 15445:2000, the validator gives me the following error message: document type does not allow element "ADDRESS" here; assuming missing "DIV" start-tag However, the ISO-HTML user guide <http://www.cs.tcd.ie/15445/UG.HTML> indicates that it should be legal to use <address> directly in the <body> element: | 13.2 The ADDRESS element type Author's address | | The <ADDRESS> [W3C 7.5.6] element indicates the author or originator | of a document or major part of a document. The International | Standard discourages its use for general markup by requiring that | it appear only in the content of the elements: <BLOCKQUOTE> | [W3C 9.2.2], <BODY> [W3C 7.5.1], <DIV> [W3C 7.5.4], <FIELDSET> | [W3C 17.10], <FORM> [W3C 17.3] and <OBJECT> [W3C 13.3]. Is this a problem with the validator, or does it indicate a discrepancy between DTD and user guide? Best regards Uli Müller -- Ulrich Mueller, Inst. fuer Kernphysik, Univ.
