Re: [WSG] how to emulate br / in xml

We've managed to rather accurately style xml resources but for one minor (?) exception. We cannot find a way to give an arbitrary element the characteristics of the html br element. I tried to copy the features I could find from Firefox's DOM inspector Object - computed style list, but what we end up with doesn't behave accordingly. Help would be much appreciated! How about reusing that element if that actually exactly represents what you need? As in: br xmlns=http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml/ ...

What about declaring the stylesheets in xml declarations at the top of the document? I thought that was required. As we're talking about xhtml (rather than any other implementation of xml), what would be the advantage of calling the stylesheet in the xml declaration if the link rel=stylesheet .../ mechanism is still allowed? There was this note once from the W3C which said that the XML Style Sheet PI should be used when the media type of the XHTML file is application/xhtml+xml[1]. And as should is similar to a must... On the other hand, W3C NOTEs are best ignored.

Re: [WSG] iCapture + Drop down menu
I don't know what the usual procedure is, but the float property does require a width to be specified, so I think you probably have two choices. Not anymore. CSS 2.1 changes this, because browsers didn't bother when 'width' isn't specified. -- Anne van Kesteren http://annevankesteren.nl/ * The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ See http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm for some hints on posting to the list getting help *
