That's not desirable. We suggest either not using an element at all or using <span title> (although title="" seems a bit odd also, and would probably be annoying to get a tooltip if you happened to hover the captions). 57741 2 ian 2011-10-04 00:40:37 +0000 Not using anything at all seems bad. I agree that <q> seems bad though, as does title="", arguably. Not sure what to propose. 58598 3 ian 2011-10-20 23:33:17 +0000 I went with just changing "q" to "span" for now, left the "title" thing alone. 58599 4 contributor 2011-10-20 23:33:26 +0000 Checked in as WHATWG revision r6722. Check-in comment: Use <span> instead of <q> to represent spans of text with a given voice, since HTML doesn't have an equivalent to <v> and <q> would add quotes. http://html5.org/tools/web-apps-tracker?from=6721&to=6722 58608 5 silviapfeiffer1 2011-10-21 00:13:46 +0000 (In reply to comment #4) > Checked in as WHATWG revision r6722. > Check-in comment: Use <span> instead of <q> to represent spans of text with a > given voice, since HTML doesn't have an equivalent to <v> and <q> would add > quotes. > http://html5.org/tools/web-apps-tracker?from=6721&to=6722 Why not just put the content of the title attribute inside the span? Then you can translate it, format it etc.
