I don't see how that explains why <small> is an inappropriate tag to use for things which an author wishes to be less noticeable.
I was thinking mostly about the tag's current usage on the web, which is a crazy mix between the HTML4 and HTML5 definition of the element. HTML4 defines it purely presentational, HTML5 mostly semantical. In that context, I believe <small> is inappropriate. However, as you write and as HTML5 defines it, there is nothing wrong with <small> per se, and I agree that as an element indicating "smallprint", it works just fine. Since my initial reply might have been a bit too colored by the HTML4 definition of the element and its current usage on the web, I hereby withdraw my comment and conclude that I mostly agree with you. :-) -- Asbjørn Ulsberg -=|=- [EMAIL PROTECTED] «He's a loathsome offensive brute, yet I can't look away»
