I'm trying to figure out what an HTML 5 menu might actually look like in 
code. Is something like this reasonable:

<menu id="ed_toolbar">
     <li><input onclick="edInsertTag(edCanvas, 0);" value="strong"></li>
     <li><input onclick="edInsertTag(edCanvas, 1);" value="em"></li>
     <li><input onclick="edInsertLink(edCanvas, 2);" value="link" ></li>
     <li><input onclick="edInsertTag(edCanvas, 3);" value="b-quote"></li>
     <li><input onclick="edInsertTag(edCanvas, 4);" value="del" ></li>
     <li><input onclick="edInsertTag(edCanvas, 5);" value="ins" ></li>
     <li><input onclick="edInsertImage(edCanvas);" value="img" ></li>
     <li><input onclick="edInsertTag(edCanvas, 7);" value="ul" ></li>
     <li><input onclick="edInsertTag(edCanvas, 8);" value="ol" ></li>
     <li><input onclick="edInsertTag(edCanvas, 9);" value="li" ></li>
     <li><input onclick="edInsertTag(edCanvas, 10);" value="code" ></li>
     <li><input onclick="edInsertTag(edCanvas, 11);" value="cite"></li>
     <li><input onclick="edInsertTag(edCanvas, 12);" value="abbr" ></li>
     <li><input onclick="edInsertTag(edCanvas, e13);" value="acronym" ></li>
</menu>

If not, what am I doing wrong? Would the menu items not contain 
JavaScript? or not contain input fields?" or what exactly?
