So basically I am "me too"ing Jukka, and also adding that we need to keep in mind accessibility concerns and a wide diversity of browsers. Mandating that a style page is "the same page" if the appearance looks the same in multiple browsers is simply wrong, and misunderstands the Web. --K -- Kynn Bartlett <kynn@idyllmtn.com> http://kynn.com Chief Technologist, Idyll Mountain http://idyllmtn.com Author, CSS in 24 Hours http://cssin24hours.com Inland Anti-Empire Blog http://blog.kynn.com/iae Shock & Awe Blog http://blog.kynn.com/shockReceived on Thursday, 24 July 2003 22:01:09 GMT
