Assertions:
  1. Internet Explorer 4.0 now recognizes this element only so far as common attributes are concerned - BLINK does not actually produce a blinking content effect in IE, but style sheet attributes and event handlers can be successfully applied.
  2. Opera 7.0 recognized this element in 7.0-7.11 only so far as common attributes are concerned - BLINK did not actually produce a blinking content effect, but ID, CLASS, STYLE and TITLE could be successfully applied. Beginning with 7.2, a blinking effect is produced.
