HTML5 has removed the name attribute of <a> elements, as far as I can see. It will probably end up requiring implementers to support it but prohibiting authors from using it -- that's their solution to backward-compatibility cruft (which is a lot better than the XHTML one of pretending no web pages from 1995 still exist and/or having a two-tier system where everyone ignores the Strict tier). _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
