(Lowercase, because it's variable height, is generally easier to read.) This is an incompatibility between HTML (where JS folds to uppercase) and XHTML/XML (where JS stays at the existing lowercase). Case folding to lower is the recommended future-friendly method, I think. --Larry Garfield _______________________________________________ jQuery mailing list discuss@jquery.com http://jquery.com/discuss/
