Hello Gregory, It appears that browsercaps went defunct sometime this summer. It has been out of service for a while now, and I'm assuming it probably won't be back. In the meantime, we've been using data from the htmlcompendium (i believe the URL is htmlcompendium.org). It is not complete. The difference between the two is that browsercaps had a wider selection of browsers, but the compendium has a more complete listing of elements that are supported (both HTML and CSS). We'll update the links where we are able and put it in errata where we can't. Ian - should we keep a place holder for browser caps in hopes that it will come back or comment it out until/if it does return? --w At 06:08 PM 9/23/99 , Gregory J.
