Description Leif Halvard Silli 2010-09-25 20:29:35 UTC
The Table of Contents doesn't allow authors to easy locate the section about the data-* attribute. The natural way to find it is to search for the string 'data-'. Therefore, please add that string to the heading.

As well, the heading of section 3.2.3.8 is  'Embedding custom non-visible data', whereas all other heading under   "3.2.3 Global attributes" are  referred to as "The FOO attribute". Therefore, the seciotn abotu data-* should have a similar title.

Acceptable variants I could think of:

"3.2.3.8 The data-* attribute (for custom non-visible data)

or, at minimum

"3.2.3.8 Embedding custom non-visible data (the data-* attribute)
