The confusion at hand is about the treatment of fieldset[readonly] (or rather, why it *doesn't* have a treatment, when fieldset[disabled] works). (I'd have a use for that, by the way. Two weeks or so ago I had a project with a lot of inputs that start in a readonly state, and go to editable as a group when you doubleclick on their section. Being able to set/unset readonly on a fieldset rather than on each individual input would have made it a little bit easier.) ~TJ
