It should probably be clarified that the number "1" in "DOM Level 1" refers to its relative date and *perceived* simplicity to clients, not its level of fundamental-ness. When there is a DOM Level 2, it may well make sense to implement Level 1 on top of Level 2. -- John Cowan http://www.ccil.org/~cowan cowan@ccil.org You tollerday donsk? N. You tolkatiff scowegian?
