Description Michael[tm] Smith 2008-12-24 16:00:54 CET

http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/#the-datalist-element

The current HTML5 draft seems to allow datalist only in phrasing content and as a child of the datagrid element. It makes not mention of it being in the general category of flow content. Also, the spec limits the datalist content models to phrasing content or zero or more option elements; it makes no mention of allowing flow content within it.
