% Printing

% Intelligent HTML 3.0 browsers could print each popup/footnote text in the 
% footer (bottom) of the page they were refered on.
% 
% Other HTML 3.0 browsers could print a separate page(s) for them.
% 
% Non HTML 3.0 browsers would have nothing to worry about as their users  
% wouldn't even find the footnotes (which is sad).

??? All of Netscape 2.0, Mosaic 2.7b3 and Lynx 2.4.2 display the 
text within an unknown tag as if the tag would not exist - actually I
thought that it was a SHOULD clause in the standard (ie, clients SHOULD
display text within unknown tag...)
