However, some comments still don't choose <footer> based on their reading of the spec. Maybe the spec needs to make it clearer in the definition of <footer> that the element is appropriate for "fat footers". 48132 2 ian 2011-05-06 00:04:20 +0000 EDITOR'S RESPONSE: This is an Editor's Response to your comment.
