All that is so true Simon, no offence.

My experience is: sometimes the flaw isnt the spec but the concept or the understanding of the html/css-designer of a particular problem ...

In such cases, it is good to remember: maybe your work-around is an overhead of thought or simply the worshipping of a false idea... lean back, have a cup of tea and recall the problem by its original structure... :-)
