This is why I have been hoping for years that the CC/PP work will be completed and widely deployed. CC/PP stands for Composite Capabilities/Preference Profiles, and allows for abstracting of the user environment (in XML/RDF) and transmission of that profile to the server (as well as modifications by proxies along the network path). It's a W3C standard-under-development. In 1999 I wrote a brief article about it, which can be found at http://www.ccpp.org/ --Kynn -- Kynn Bartlett <kynn@reef.com> Technical Developer Liaison Reef North America Accessibility - W3C - Integrator Network ________________________________________ BUSINESS IS DYNAMIC.
