Re: Front Page 2000 does NOT allow multiple <body> tags, Whgy not?

DAWG, I'm curious about something.

First, my understanding is that the HTML that is served up must have exactly
one body element, <body> ... </body> to be valid. (What browsers do is yet a
different question.)

That's not quite the same as saying that there must be exactly one body
element on the server side, but I think FrontPage, which basically manages
the <head>+<body> element structure enforces it.

Can you provide more about the case where you find having multiple <body>
tags to be valuable, and does it still have the browser actually see only one
<body> element? Maybe there is a restatement of your use that works well
enough within the structure that FrontPage supports.

I have to tell you that the only HTML that I have seen with multiple <body>
tags involved phishing exploits against browsers. (So a better question
might be, why do some browsers accept multiple <body> tags as part of their
"forgiving" design?)
