The rel attribute is defined on more than one HTML element, you can see that here <http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/index/attributes.html> where you find that rel is defined for the a and for the link element. It specifies forward link types <http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/struct/links.html#adef-rel> and in my view doing e.g. <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="style.css"> is one of the most common uses. The link types the HTML 4 specification defines are here <http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/types.html#type-links> but others can be used too. As for SVG, it uses attributes defined in the XLink specification for linking: <http://www.w3.org/TR/SVG11/linking.html#xlink-att-mod> The rel/rev attribute in HTML are as far as I understand currently similar to the xlink:role and xlink:arcrole attributes. On the other hand as I said in HTML <link rel="stylesheet"> is one of the most common uses, there SVG as an XML application simply makes use of a processing instruction in the form <?xml-stylesheet type="text/css" href="style.css"?> ----- To unsubscribe send a message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -or- visit http://groups.yahoo.com/group/svg-developers and click "edit my membership" ---- Yahoo!
