Once upon a time Carl Morris shaped the electrons to say... >Yea, write doom in basic for god sakes.... or java, or ... be my >guest... when you fail... then tell me those are not languages... HTML is not a programming language. I want to see you write a simple if-else statement in HTML. Hell, ANY statement that consitutes a logical function. HTML is a Markup Language, that's it. Stop trying to use broken logic to claim it is something else. HTML does *NOTHING* programatically. It marks up content to give *clues* about how to display things. The browser is the program, not the HTML. Again, claiming HTML is a programming language is the same as claiming the field delimiters in a database are a programming language. -MZ -- Livingston Enterprises - Chair, Department of Interstitial Affairs Phone: 800-458-9966 510-426-0770 FAX: 510-426-8951 megazone@livingston.com For support requests: support@livingston.com <http://www.livingston.com/> Snail mail: 6920 Koll Center Parkway #220, Pleasanton, CA 94566 See me in person: Internet Expo, Boston, MA, October 16-17, Booth 422 ;-)
