In that case it seems to be better to use some instead of the new tag . Or, of course, use some classes for the different headers, if you use several ones. http://code.google.com/speed/page-speed/docs/rendering.html#UseEfficientCSSSelectors I just read about optimizing browser rendering and it says using tags in css is very inefficient.

CSS's job is to style the look of the content, but the description of content was formerly XML's job, hence the bland combination that led to XHTML 4.01. It is now merely given to us in the HTML5 toolkit, if you wish to describe it as such. @Stephen, I believe that header, and other tags such as ‘section’ and ‘aside’, etc are more descriptions of content than they are styling information.

But isn't that essentially styling information? Sure the header won't actually style itself or anything, but the location of elements in pages is something I'd always thought was css's job, while html should just define the content of the information.

Keep up the good work!

The more complex it is, the more necessary the header element becomes. For example, a title of the webpage (logo, navigation, search etc.) should have a header because it encompasses the whole page. A mere section or article, however, are generally pretty simple (though not always) and generally don't need a header element. An h1 would do fine in those cases. However, it's up to your discretion. A header certainly wouldn't hurt; it would just add to your markup, which is something you may not want. @thecat: it depends on the complexity of the section.

Or: <header> <h1> </h1> </header> Or do I use <header> only if I have more than 1 header element? What if I have a section and it has only one header as in <h1> … do I just use <h1> </h1>? Or:

<header>
<h1> </h1>
</header>

Or do I use <header> only if I have more than 1 header element?

That is something that's on most websites, and it would be more semantic than img or background-image...and it could also then be syndicated as well could it not?
