Nevertheless, I couldn't find proof (within the relevant specifications) to support this behavior (though I'm sure I just didn't crawl enough). @Peter Kerr Firefox is also available for Mac, so you may consider installing it for a third opinion. :-) By the way: using "Test" for all strings doesn't help much - you may run into situations, usually caused by bugs or author errors, where the content is messed up and order is changed. Adding a number after the strings ("Test1", "Test2", etc.) helps avoiding this. ;-) Hope this helps, Helder MagalhãesReceived on Saturday, 10 January 2009 09:31:35 GMT
