Why limit to 9 levels? Why not just say Hn where n is any real whole number?
On the other hand what might be a little nicer is just to have an H tag and let the number be implied by the tag's relative nesting level. The CSS could be H.n where n is the nesting level. If you are working on a book and want to move a sub sub sub section heading to another location would you really want to figure out it's new h level? Or should it's relative position indicate nesting level and therefore which style to use? -Art Arthur Clifford On Oct 24, 2010, at 19:58, Sebastian Heath <[email protected]> wrote: > > Rather than H0 as the title of a document, perhaps it would be interesting to > allow the 'title' element to appear in the body of a document.
