Charles > But -- there are good reasons to continue supporting them, and appreciate their existence. I was thinking there is no reason to support older obsolete and rarely encountered browsers, but there are great reasons to attempt to support the old html user code that the old browsers used to run. old code, old browser = OK old code, new browser = OK as much as possible new code, old browser = probably not. new code, new browser = html5 spec Especially for DOM scripting, interactivitity, any worthwhile new features, accessibility, and general usabiilty in today's WWW, not worth it to cater to old browsers but maybe worth it to cater to old html code. Thanks and Best Regards, Joe
