Unfortunately, there are hundreds of already deployed tools, including search engines, robots, HTML editors and validators that CANNOT deal with many of the pages that are already on the web. Netscape and MSIE are not the only important Internet Applications. So it is not sufficient to standardize the mess that already exists. We must make a better standard and those that care about having their documents properly indexed will adhere to the better standard. Paul Prescod
