Detlev Fischer I don't know. My questions are documented below. I have repeadedly hear of cases where duplicate IDs can be shown to create no accessibility problems so if applied in automatic tests this may lead to many instances where content fails without any tangible impact for users. I have not followed the discussion on ths, but has there been due diligience regarding the evaluation of cases whwere duplicate IDs cause no harm? Example smight be dublicate IDs for CSS styles, duplicate IDs in hidden content or commented-out content
