Quoting Alexey Feldgendler <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
     <aside>
       <h1>Figure 1: Some image found <a href="...">here</a></h1>
       <p><img src="..."></p>
     </aside>

I'm afraid this won't degrade gracefully: the <h1> would confuse the document outline facilities in today's user agents.

So use a different number...

Sounds like a hack.

I guess that depends on how you view it. Perhaps it's a hack from an HTML4 UA
point of view but I guess most things are a hack seen from such a UA. Take
<canvas> for example... It is one that degrades gracefully though. Another
option would be something like:

<dl>
 <dt><img alt="">
 <dd>Caption...
</dl>

... given that <dl> only associates things and is not really a "definition"
thingie anymore.


This heading shouldn't be within the document's main tree of headings. It should be completely taken out, that's what "aside" means. But it can't be done in a backwards compatible way.

It would be useful if it was part of the document's outline actually. Opera for
example lets you easily navigate headers...
