Bryan, I think it fine to go with a list of allowed attributes, just make it short..

I wneted to look up how this is handled in meta, and figured that the meta attributes do not have conetnt specified at all

Would you mind specifying something?

Ah, yes. The example is sent is flawed. The processing requirement needs to say something like "The subFs MUST only be used to carry attribute name/value comma-delimited pairs for attributes that are valid for the HTML element identified by the accompanying fs." Example: fs:fs='img' fs:subFs='src,smileface.png' "Commas in the value part of the pair must be escaped."

For that matter, I suppose since we offer a list of valid HTML elements that can be in fs, why not add a column of attributes that can be in the name part of the subFs pair?

Good input. Thanks.

The problem is not about PCDATA, it's that since there is not definition of what subFs can hold, tools cannot do anything with it.

For example: how a tool can know what to do with the content of subFs in <pc fs:fs="img" fs:subFs="smileface.png">? There is nowhere any processing expectation that describe, for example, that if fs is 'img' subFs contains the URL of the image. What is the value of subFs when fs is something else?

cheers,
