I submit the following with a slight sense of alarm. NCSA is claiming that Netscape <BODY> attributes are part of HTML v3. Go to the link this person specifies and see for yourself. Follow the link on that page to the sample background images and see some more mis-information. Somebody ought to go smack the WinMosaic developers upside da haid. A lot of people look the NCSA as a group that knows what they are talking about when it comes to the Web. ---from comp.infosystems.www.browsers.ms-windows--- I asked this at the authoring.html group, but I never got an answer. in the NCSA Mosiac final beta release notes at: http://www.ncsa.uiuc.edu/SDG/Software/WinMosaic/Docs/RnotesFB.htm#HTML there are note on attributes for the body tag to change the colors in a document. These appear to resemble Netscapes extensions. I cannot find similar attributes in the HTML 3 spec at: http://www.w3.org/hypertext/WWW/MarkUp/html3/docbody.html So, the question is: are these attributes real HTML? or did NCSA play follow the leader to Netscape? Does anyone know if NCSA plans to implement style sheets ever?
