Therefore, maybe we could have <content> introduced. 63153 1 ian 2012-01-26 16:03:25 +0000 But there are the <section> and <article> elements available to wrap such things? If you have a <header>, <footer> and several <aside>s in an <article> or <section>, than everything else IS content. Process of elimination. 63155 2 ian.html 2012-01-26 16:36:28 +0000 (In reply to comment #1) > But there are the <section> and <article> elements available to wrap such > things? If you have a <header>, <footer> and several <aside>s in an <article> > or <section>, than everything else IS content. Process of elimination. Process of elimination is okay. However, without being wrapped by a <content> tag, all content elements look like they are at the same level as <header> and <footer> elements. If we have the <content> tag to wrap all those various content elements, our mockup will looks cleaner and tidier. 70109 3 contributor 2012-07-18 06:54:53 +0000 This bug was cloned to create bug 17819 as part of operation convergence. 73344 4 eoconnor 2012-09-06 18:27:18 +0000 EDITOR'S RESPONSE: This is an Editor's Response to your comment.
