  • 1.  Section Div in LI?

    Posted 05-26-2009 13:44
    On Friday, in the context of designing a new specialization for a client, I
    noticed that section-div is not allowed within li.
    
    I'm not sure what the finally-approved proposal said but it was certainly my
    intent/assumption that section-div would be allowed essentially anywhere 

    is allowed. By that logic, I would be inclined to argue that the lack of section-div in li (and similar elements, e.g., dd, etc.) is a bug. Having forgotten the original discussion and thinking only of the base semantics of section-div, I found it surprising that it was not included in li. I'm not making a proposal at this time but would like to discuss the issue to determine if it is really a bug or if the proposal as approved explicitly dealt with this case.

    Hi - just to aid in discussion of the item, here is the proposal that was
    approved Nov 13, 2007:
    http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/download.php/25904/12021.html
    
    The only changes were slight amendments on April 29, 2008 explicitly
    calling out conbodydiv, refbodydiv, and approving the addition of
    sectiondiv to other section specializations:
