The W3 says that dls generally consist of a series of term/definition
pairs (although definition lists may have other applications). As an
example, another application of dl... is for marking up dialogues,
with each dt naming a speaker, and each dd containing his or her
words.
Why not just put a name=content/a at the top of the page?
Because I don't consider that to be a modern solution, and since I'm
relearning how to code, I want some choices. ;)

An ID in the body? Now, why didn't I think of that? :) Is that valid?
I'll try it! Thanks!

Hi Tom,
Yes - the markup will validate as HTML. Here is an example:

What always makes me wonder about these solutions is that, in effect,
they are still reliant on the fact that current browsers have the

The browser will understand the target=_blank no matter what the DTD is.
I think it would just assume HTML, and therefore _blank = new window.
The DTD I forged with the help of a tutorial - will allow you the

That is all - I should have mentioned that earlier.

I think you are correct in your assessment that opening a new window is
a behavior of the UA, and therefore (arguably) should not be included in
the DTD that describes the structure of a document.
Having said all that Chris's solution of having extended and published

I've been having some trouble with our topnav. It's a simple unordered list with
nested unordered lists to represent the subnav. The top nav is horizontal and in the
tab-like format. The subnav sits below it. In firefox and most browsers, there is a
1 pixel line below the topnav and above
Negative values always give pretty bad results. Instead of moving it up, why
don't you float the heading to the right of your logo and then just movie it
a bit down and a bit left (by giving margin-top and margin-right)? That
should give you the result you want, without using negative numbers.
