It's not really the <fieldset> that is enabled/disabled, it's the controls within it. Put it this way: if we dropped support for disabled="" from the spec, I think one would still argue that <input> is :enabled, but I don't think one would argue that <fieldset> is :enabled. Case in point, nobody argued that <fieldset> should match :enabled before we added the disabled="" attribute to it. -- Ian Hickson U+1047E )\._.,--....,'``. fL http://ln.hixie.ch/ U+263A /, _.. \ _\ ;`._ ,.
