The validator recognizes the 'multiple' attribute. But when you actually do set more than one option as 'selected', then it reports that this is not permitted, unless you use the 'multiple' attribute. Let's hope that Henri is paying attention. Otherwise, you could perhaps report the bug at the HTML5 validator's own bugzilla: http://bugzilla.validator.nu -- leif halvard silli
