I agree on one level, it does not do a lot for accessibility because the issue of styling native elements still remains. I don't quite understand how sub-classing does not help accessibility, when in the cases of simple controls that have added custom features, re-using a button or a checkbox etc rather than buidling it from scratch appears to be useful for accessibility and other reasons. note: this is not an argument for is= :-) -- Regards SteveF HTML 5.1 <http://www.w3.org/html/wg/drafts/html/master/>
