It seems that the version of Seaside I was basing this on was 3.0.3
which is the latest version ported to VisualWorks in the Cincom Public
Store repository. As you say, things have changed since and support
for the HTML5 spec has improved.<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>

<pre wrap="">The HTML5 spec is still changing and it's hard to keep up with the latest
changes. Since I'm developing a Seaside course, I decided to go through the
current HTML5 spec (Editor's Draft 23 September 2011) and compare what
element tags are available in that spec versus the tags we support in
Seaside

I don't know which Seaside version this is based on but the situation
in Seaside 3.0.6 is a bit different (see below). Most of the changes
probably come from Seaside 3.0.4.
