He probably refers to this: Element names are written in uppercase letters (e.g., BODY). Attribute names are written in lowercase letters (e.g., lang, onsubmit). Recall that in HTML, element and attribute names are case-insensitive; the convention is meant to encourage readability. -- http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/about.html#h-1.2.1 The two important things to note about it are: (1) It explicitly says that element and attribute names ARE case-insensitive and (2) It comes from the section that describes the conventions used in the documentation for the spec, not implementations of the spec. -- David Dorward <http://dorward.me.uk/> ******************************************************************* List Guidelines: http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm Unsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfm Help: [EMAIL PROTECTED] *******************************************************************
