Re: [WSG] Semantic tag for copyright slug?
Of course, with XHTML, you can actually define your own tags (includingcopyright /, trademark /, flyingpigs /). And don't forget namespaces as well (fairytales:flyingpigs /) flyingpigs It'll be nice when all browsers behave and play together in the same playground. /flyingpigs signatureGary Menzel/signature PS [Is it FLEX?, is it XAML?, NO- it's..

[WSG] Semantic tag for copyright slug?
This maybe taking the whole semantic thing too far, but is there a "copywright" tag (not the Meta Tag) that one should use for copyright information? I've searched the web, but can't find one defined other than the meta tag. The use for this would be - frequenlty for my projects - in the footer, where you say "Copyright 2005 - some company, inc. all rights reserved". That kind of thing. I've been enclosing this kind of information in p/p tags for years, but am just wondering if there's a more semantically-appropriate tag to use - like "label/label maybe? Cole

Hi Cole Label is a form field tag... it can't be used outside of a form. (well it can but you'll have invalid html according to the w3c) http://htmlhelp.com/reference/html40/forms/label.html The issue here is how far you go with your semantics. Do we have a tag for trademark, registered mark, service mark?. To all intents and purposes it's a paragraph or phrase of text on the page.
