Using the <aside> Element in Lieu of <section> #24

Closed Avengio closed 12 years ago

Hi All - Shouldn't the two sidebars in tersus utilize the aside element in lieu of the section element? Based on a quick glance at the HTML 5 spec the aside element seems more more semantically accurate and would allow us to drop the "sidebar" class on that section element and simplify the specificity in the stylesheet.

Good call, Beau.

The short answer is … Yes.

The slightly longer answer is … we haven’t quite finished implementing all of the de facto HTML5 elements yet. Elements such as aside, figure, figcaption, and nav are all on the to do list. (Although not listed here as issues, for some reason.)

Ask and you shall receive.

The sidebar <section> elements (and associated selectors) have been replaced with <aside> elements.
