Given the Consortium-nature of the W3C and its membership basis, I strongly recommend that non-members treat the W3C with a good deal more cynicism than has historically been the case. The W3C is not a friendly non-profit aiming for the good of the world. It would perhaps be nice if it was, but as Mark points out, it's not, and not likely to be. -- Simon St.Laurent Ring around the content, a pocket full of brackets Errors, errors, all fall down! http://simonstl.com
