I also don't believe you don't remember classes can be combined. A carefully composed stylesheet usually resolves the issues with duplications. The strongest argument for protecting XHTML2 against 'style' is the language itself. The *new* language (if someone decided to rip 'style' out of the, say, HTML4 then Mikka would definately change his mind). --- Alexander "Croll" Savenkov http://www.thecroll.com/ w3@hotbox.ru http://croll.da.ru/
