Hi,
I'm trying to produce an empty anchor tag (HTML) with attribute name,
but cocoon (XSL Tansformer + HTML Serializer) makes the closing tag in the
result, which causes some browsers
(IE) not to regognize the anchor.
Tag:
a name=foo
Called with:
a href=#foolink to foo/a
This doesn't work

in HTML 4.0, though? Id is better anyway, it's more generic.

It's still valid, from the same document:

You can use either name or id, but the name has to be unique.

Yup!

Nope, I'm quite sure it wasn't. May have been valid in 3.2 but 3.2 was
DTDed tag soup anyway :-)
