I've wrestled with this because its something that our designer has wanted
to use all over the place for an application I'm working on. It turns out to
be a usability nightmare if not used sparingly. When we used it, it was
definitely in place of an actual label, and I think this would be true in
I'm also a Pandora fan, and I actually thought of another use. In addition
to popping out a separate player, Pandora also opens new tabs/windows to
browse pages about artists/songs. These pages allow you to listen to
samples, but listening to them does not pause the player. It would be pretty
cool
be controlled by css - when to break between blocks etc., but
there a semantic and structural aspect as well.

Ignore my last statement. It was a draft I wrote before reading Ian's

For what it's worth, Shannon, I totally agree with you. Not only is this
something I have been wanted for a long time, but I think it belongs in the
html. It's one thing if you just want columns, which is being covered here:
http://www.w3.org/TR/css3-multicol/. The CSS covers that nicely, but
is wrong with it, except that a
library should consist of books, but that concept was already broken long
ago.

I don't think it is as much of a performance killer as you say it is.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but the standard connection limit is two.
The standard connection limit is 6, not 2, as of IE 8
What about an alternative attribute like navigate instead of href. It
would not carry the full weight of the anchor tag, but would handle the 90%
use case. It would not allow for the same options as the a tag, and the a
tag would continue to work the same way that it has been.

http://www.example.com/z.html, and x.m21 contains a z.html but the server
also responds to http://example.com/z.html, does the second load (z.html)

Hi all,
I checked through the archives, but did not see anything, so if this has
been addressed already, I apologize.
This is a suggestion that is more helpful to larger single page web
