I don't understand the roundtrip issue. It seems to me that CSS can hold all numbers you throw at it. By using the string-less CSS OM interfaces that are proposed, most string conversions can be avoided. And, even when you want to export to a textual style sheet you can use the "toFixed" method which doesn't switch into e-notation for small numbers (only for numbers larger than 10^21 which hardly seems like an issue). -h&kon Håkon Wium Lie CTO °þe®ª howcome@opera.com http://people.opera.com/howcome
