[WSG] HTML5 Elements question
List, Just trying to get a better grip on the proper use of the new elements. I have a site with a persistent nav of the site on the top of the page and on a couple pages, a large designed grid with nice hover effects that mirrors the persistent nav. The persistent nav has role="navigation" and I was thinking the grids should also be the nav element sans role. Am I tracking this right? Or is the grid not a case for the nav element? The grids and top nav are site-wide navigation within large sections of the site, not the ENTIRE site as a whole - it's based on what group you fall in, like "members" etc. Thanks in advance. -- Tom Livingston | Senior Interactive Developer | Media Logic | ph: 518.456.3015x231 | fx: 518.456.4279 | mlinc.com *** List Guidelines: http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm Unsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfm Help: memberh...@webstandardsgroup.org ***
