+When the optional $= v$ is omitted in an XML attribute, the attribute is assigned value $\mt{True}$ in Ur/Web, and it is rendered to HTML merely as including the attribute name without a value.  If such a Boolean attribute is manually set to value $\mt{False}$, then it is omitted altogether in generating HTML.

 Further, there is a special convenience and compatibility form for setting CSS classes of tags.  If a \cd{class} attribute has a value that is a string literal, the literal is parsed in the usual HTML way and replaced with calls to appropriate Ur/Web combinators.  Any dashes in the text are replaced with underscores to determine Ur identifiers.  The same desugaring can be accessed in a normal expression context by calling the pseudo-function \cd{CLASS} on a string literal.
 
 Similar support is provided for \cd{style} attributes.  Normal CSS syntax may be used in string literals that are \cd{style} attribute values, and the desugaring may be accessed elsewhere with the pseudo-function \cd{STYLE}.
