In answer to the rhetorical question in the subject line which | started this thread - it is possible to devise such a feeble system (I | presume this is referring to CSS2's lack of vertical block centering) when | version two of a standard becomes a recommendation before version one is | even fully implemented. The "web developer" audience who would choose to | point out that the emperor had no clothes in this case were too busy with | working with what little CSS1 they could work with to bother giving CSS2 a | critical look. | | This is another reason why no draft should exit CR without _at_least_ two | interoperable (passing the respective test suite in the same way) | implementations (available, shipping, not experimental) for every feature | in that draft. Just look at http://w3.org/TR/ to see how many RECs there | are that never met this criteria. | very well said! I fully support this. | --------------------------------------------------------------------------- |- Browse Different. | http://www.microsoft.com/mac/ie/ -- Vadim Plessky http://kde2.newmail.ru (English) 33 Window Decorations and 6 Widget Styles for KDE http://kde2.newmail.ru/kde_themes.html KDE mini-Themes http://kde2.newmail.ru/themes/
