6.7.2.6. Other <link> attributes
The HTML 4 and XHTML standards also include the ubiquitous collection
of attributes related to stylesheets and user events, and language for
the
<link>
tag. You can refer to the corresponding section describing
these attributes for the
<a>
tag for a complete description of their usage.

Because you put the
<link>
tag in the
<head>
section, whose contents
are not displayed, it may seem that these attributes are useless. It is
entirely possible that some future browser may find some way to display
the
<link>
information to the user, possibly as a navigation bar or a set
of hot-list selections. In those cases, the display and rendering informa-
tion would prove useful. Currently, no browser provides these capabilit-
ies.
