Re: [whatwg] Site-Wide Heading Element

2015-07-01 Thread Pontus Horn af Rantzien
I don't see too much value in having a special element for the website
title/logo/branding as shown in-page.

I *can* see some value in canonically defining the website name inside
head, e.g. for accessibility purposes. Let's say you navigate to a site
you're not familiar with via search results, a link, etc. You skip to the
content as that's what you're interested in, but you like the content and
want to find out the name of the website. To my knowledge, there's no go-to
place for that information. It might be part of the title or an h1, but
both of those elements relate more to the page than the larger site.

To me it'd make sense to define such an element as a companion to title.
Many authors currently lump the website name and the page title together in
an arbitrary format inside title. Having a separate element for the
website name would serve to discourage that, and would let user agents
present the two pieces of information in a consistent and predictable way.

 div is actually a neutral block element. The neutral inline

 div.

 I would not use h1 because My Website is neither a heading for the

 Let's assume we would introduce a new element with the meaning title

I agree that the title/banner/logo element doesn't add much value. I don't
feel like a tag to canonically declare the website name would add much
value either - isn't that what the domain is for? Also the tag wouldn't be
very trustworthy - the domain is less easy to lie about.

Re: [whatwg] Site-Wide Heading Element

2015-07-01 Thread Delfi Ramirez
 

Hi all: 

There was mentioned logo as a descendant element of the sectioning
header element, just as an idea to solve the needs of the unacurate
use of the header element it seems it occurs in our daily use, with
the current spec. 

I could imagine other semantic elements,as long as e undertand the new
uses population make of websites and the web. 

A logo element seems reasonable to me, both in a semantical and in a
structural mode. 

Imagine: 

* Representing the page in other pages or directories ( through an API
that crawls, search and makes an scrutiny of the pages, brands and its
referenced logos ) . Solves the exposed in nightly spec, mentioned in my
last mail.
* logo As a possible linked reference or representation for new
gTLDs.
* Linked Correspondence between the logo and the icon an app has ,
or a bookmark visualizes, in a mobile scenario. Think of weareables
connected to web pages.
* A element acting as a reference for an object, that takes the weight
offto other header elements descendants like img and h1, which, in
my consideration are heavily misused, due to old practices.

Stop my verbosity. Thank you for taking time in reading these notes. 

Cheers

The domain does not necessarily correspond to or have any relation to the

just as well read Ali's Tap Art.

You're right that it could have some security implications if presented as

Re: [whatwg] Site-Wide Heading Element

2015-07-01 Thread Delfi Ramirez
 

Pontus, you are right noticing the domain HAD or HAS nothing to do
necessarily, and the idea exposed before here in this thread was just
this, _an idea_. a WILL or a MIGHT. 

Just keep in mind these _gTLD_ are new -- we would have not imagine
years ago, one will have to deal with specific domains like dev which
will open new uses for the web. New IPv6, comes in mind. 

My observations were just annotations to what is defined in the section
4.3.7 of the living HTML5.1 spec for the element _header_. 

In our modern era of linked data, I just noticed there is a certain
misuse, and some unresolved circumstances , for structural elements
presented in a website. And the HTML spec SHOULD have to solve these
inaccuracies. 

Of course, as it has been mentioned in this thread before, we do have
structural elements like div or span that can handle well our needs
of_ flowing content_. 

Surfing the web through a weareable, not a device, makes this
requirement, expressed above, more clear._ Siri , find me the logo of
the company XXX, an place it in the upper left of the page providers
featured in my website_. A logo tag would be nice for the search of
Siri, wouldn't be? 

Solution: Taking in consideration, if I am not wrong, that an HTML
element is _not just a tag_, probably, an ARIA _role logo_ would
accomplish these needs easily. 

My suggestion -- and logo was just one -- goes far from this solution,
it is for a future extension of what represents a_ non-sectioning_
element like _header_,_ footer_ wrapping _sectioning_ content, like
the element h1. 

To apply the same methods done in HTML3.1 , in our century, when we are
making websites and see the rendered result in a browser, makes no sense
to me.But who knows. 

Apologies for the verbosity 

Cheers
