I don't think that everything needs be represented by a separate element. See for example the example in the spec tdg-en-html-2.0.7/tdg/en/html/systemitem.html : <systemitem class="systemname">helio.oreilly.com</systemitem> "h" (not as char, but as key) doesn't have an element either, but is written as <keycap>h</keycap> > i remember some of the earlier proposals that had these kinds > of keys strictly as attributes for a "regular" keycap element, > which i didn't much like. Why not? The typical way to do "enter" is to press the key with function "enter". This translates nicely to <keycap function="enter"/> > and because they are discrete keystrokes in their own right, > i don't think supporting them with a "function" attribute > quite fits the bill. I think that it actually is a quite concise way of expressing/marking up function keys. Also see the other reply. Tobi -- http://www.pinkjuice.com/
