I am working thru raggett's super tutorial on style and advanced html that is at the w3.org site. Almost everything works with Amaya. Dave has been clever enough to comment out the topic of first-letter pseudo as it does violent things in Amaya. Of course the Javascript topic fails as it is not yet a part of Amaya. However I did find that imagemaps also failed to work. Is this a known issue. Is it just unimplemented at this stage, waiting its turn after items with higher priority. Or is it buggy and waiting its turn. What is really needed and would not take that much time to do is a document that made explicitly clear: 1] What parts of CSS and HTML are unimplemented and priority level. For example certain things may never be implemented (perhaps frames ;-[ ). Others are anticipated in the next release ... 2] What parts of CSS and HTML are buggy and their priority level for repair. This will help those using Amaya so that designing pages is not so much of a discovery process. P.S. The first-letter pseudo bug should get a high priority for repair or backtrack so that it is not functional at all! At present pages with drop caps done correctly with style will affect the entire paragraph. Or one can retreat to the bad old days of <span>D</span>ropcaps with appropriate font change on the span element which works but eliminates the capability of searching on Dropcaps.....
