This is a good plan which I have heard several people mention who are ramping up to DSSSL support. James Clark apparently reckons it is two hours work to write a CSS -> DSSSL import filter although whose two hours he didn't say. As an implementation strategy it seems sound, though, assuming that DSSSL can describe all of CSS which I am informed it does, or can do via it's extension mechanism. -- Chris Lilley, W3C [ http://www.w3.org/ ] Graphics and Fonts Guy The World Wide Web Consortium http://www.w3.org/people/chris/ INRIA, Projet W3C chris@w3.org 2004 Rt des Lucioles / BP 93 +33 (0)4 93 65 79 87 06902 Sophia Antipolis Cedex, France
