I don't see what could be done differently here. Firefox renders it pretty much the same way as Dillo does. Am I missing something?
Yes, but that doesn't mean dillo can't be better than firerox :) Stuff from a namespace we understand (right now just XHTML, but in the future maybe SVG, MathML, whatever. or not) should get processed according to the rules of that namespace. Namespaces we don't understand, and for which we have no processing rules, should be ignored completely. And, I feel that if a server is serving with an XML MIME-type, we can trust that they expect XML-style processing rules like this, since tagsoup sites are not served with such a MIME. -- Stephen Paul Weber, @singpolyma See <http://singpolyma.net> for how I prefer to be contacted edition right joseph
