Making an element invalid, whether it be in the HTML or through JS,
makes that element invalid. The validator might not catch it but the
fact stands.
Correct me if I am wrong.

REALLY valid?
Hi all,
I was looking at the source of the Fisheye demo after reading about it
here on WSG - hoping it would be valid. It contains it's own made up
attributes which devalidate the code.
So then I thought fine, I'll just take them out the source and write
them in with JavaScript onload instead, making sure it degrades well.
But that's where I thought, is that REALLY valid? It'll pass at the
W3C validator but my generated source is going to be invalid.
Screen readers in my fairly limited understanding (sorry, I'm still
young and learning :) ) don't use JavaScript so *should* be ok right?
Which groups of users would be affected by this?
Respectfully, and thanks in advance.
