Surely at some level, the content of the <a/> element COULD do this? To me the introduction of an additional attribute (rel, rev, whatever) beyond the text just pushes the same problem off into a different syntactic construct - what's the point? It's a little bit like thinking that namespace uris are going to be more unique than namespace prefixes. It just adds complex syntax without doing anything to solve the essential problem. -Mike
