Do you also check the CSS to see if the markup is redundant?

Which presentational markup is considered harmful even if CSS is used? --Kynn -- Kynn Bartlett <kynn@idyllmtn.com> http://kynn.com Chief Technologist, Idyll Mountain http://idyllmtn.com Web Accessibility Expert-for-hire http://kynn.com/resume Next Book: Teach Yourself CSS in 24 http://cssin24hours.com
