IMG was not the best way to include images, FONT was not the best way to specify font styles, and FRAMESET is not the best way to associate different HTML documents. When I look at how long we've suffered with inadequate solutions like IMG and FONT, I think about what inadequacies we'll be suffering with years down the road. I hope that FRAMESET won't be one of them. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: PGP for Personal Privacy 5.0 Charset: noconv iQB1AwUBNBdYUQ/JhtXygIx1AQGKhQL/aIcqAILQ532Rgz/xIXoRAefTIyeMrH/n DzAdJBs28blB4nECDWOjZ+CaBzjfLd/QIiDa37Cp5Zr8MHxlKl5KCdKaj66Z0bYP hU1xoKn1gLtx4nVRnEdf4uifl/xok8Cq =iDp+ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Liam Quinn =============== http://www.htmlhelp.com/%7Eliam/ =============== Web Design Group Enhanced Designs, Web Site Development http://www.htmlhelp.com/ http://enhanced-designs.com/ ====== PGP Key at http://www.htmlhelp.com/%7Eliam/pgp.html =====
