Once upon a time Steve Knoblock shaped the electrons to say... >things that should be done in markup classing. Otherwise we ought to move >to SGML where you can have your own <initialpara>text</initialpara> or such >and hang a style directly on it. That's what XML is about. So push MS and NS to implement it - talking to a number of MS developers at WWW6 they personally are in favor of IE 5 having full XML support. But unless the suits make that a design goal they can't go do it on their own. And NS's commitment to XML is still vague. XML with CSS and/or DSSSL would give you the absolute control you're looking for. -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: 4464 Willow Road, Pleasanton, CA 94588
