Wow! Fun side fact: there are two “HTML5”, one by each group; one has had a formal release, the other is “a living standard”, i.e. can change on a whim; both are indistinguishable from each other. I’ve had it had with them and just stick to XHTML/1.1 for my own webpages. That’s more than sufficient. bye, //mirabilos -- “It is inappropriate to require that a time represented as seconds since the Epoch precisely represent the number of seconds between the referenced time and the Epoch.” -- IEEE Std 1003.1b-1993 (POSIX) Section B.2.2.2 _______________________________________________ Lynx-dev mailing list Lynx-dev@nongnu.org https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lynx-dev
