pageoneresults: DEPRECATED! yes, I know, after I spent the better part of 24hrs creating this [meinsandkasten.com ] to concatenate <abbr> and <acronym> objects. Oh well, I did learn a thing or three, and I've decided to squeeze the last bit of life out of <acronym>. It may have been confusing but I liked the precision of using it for things like COBOL or ROSCOE, you know, abbreviations you could pronounce.

As for the border-bottom: my <abbr> elements are all caps so that is my version of a visual clue. The dotted property value IMHO is redundant and a bit noisy, particularly if the element exists in bunches. Peace.
