I wrote more about this here:

But what it basically boils down to is having a tag I call list

Great idea, Christian, but you've been scooped: LH was part of the
1993 HTML3 specification in the UL, OL, and DL definitions, such as:
http://www.w3.org/MarkUp/html3/deflists.html
LH appears to have disappeared from the specs between HTML 3.0 and
3.2, but I wasn't able to discover when or
Hi,
And what about the definition list? It seems to me that is a plain way
to do that job m8.
dl
dtheader/dt
dditem1/dd
...
/dl
dl is handy because you can use more headers (dt tags) in the same list etc.

Great idea, Christian,
Or you could nest it, even, if that's valid. Sounds awful complex though...
dl
dtheader/dt
dd
ul
li/li
/ul
/dd
/dl
Though I remain uncertain as to the semantic value of that, even if it is valid.

I think those both do not solve the problem. How do I give a
definition list a header?
h1Dictionary/h1
dl
dtword/dt
dddef/dd
dtword/dt
dddef/dd
/dl
I would like to do:
dl
lhDictionary/lh
dt.../dt
dh.../dh

Any solution that involves nested lists is really bad IMO. That makes
things too

I understand your desire to be completely explicit in terms of assigning
a header to a list, I'd say that (X)HTML is just not that explicit a
language in that respect, and that
I understand your desire to be completely explicit in terms of assigning
a header to a list, I'd say that (X)HTML is just not that explicit a
language in that respect, and that *source order* is used to infer a lot
of this type of assignment. Think, for instance, about a normal page

Hi,
I do not know is this a solution for our problem but it seems it does
the semantic and valid job - i made it a bit complex but its now a
closely real-world example :)
h1label for=stuff-lista accesskey=0 href=This is a Header
for my stuff list/a/label/h1
ul id=stuff-list
lia accesskey=1

Hey Patrick,
Yes I understand your doubts but the starting point was that Chris
wanted a Hx element semantically connected with a list (with valid
xhtml code).
I think my solution is okay but I'd never use it ;)
I use the plain DL that has DT elements useable for pseudo-headings.

Yes it seems but:
Navigation lists are intended to be used to define collections of
selectable items for presentation in a navigation menu. Note that a
navigation list always starts with a label element that defines the
label for the list.

I understand, but I'd argue that your solution with LABEL is no more
semantically connected than the original one without, as LABEL is
expected to point

Perhaps we can use one of the followings:

LABEL is expected to point to a form control, not a list. It may
validate in terms of syntax, but in terms of logic it doesn't make
sense...
Unfortunately HTML validators do contain errors. Allowing

Hi standardistas,
Ive had a problem with onfocus and onblur where
Firefox is calling onblur before onfocus when clicking on an input element.
This is a bug (https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=53118
) because it goes against the DOM2 Event handling spec.
The only way around

Firefox 1.5rc1 still has the same faulty behaviour...how weird.
