Quite the opposite. I said that if there is no CSS available for an <img> tag, the browser should just display the image the best it can(and they do this quite well already, in my experience). And that this very rare occasion of CSS failure does not warrant the mandatory requirement of in-line styling of the <img> tag. Dean Edridge
