/ Jeff Beal <jeff.beal@ansys.com> was heard to say:
| I agree with Elliotte. I think the key point of his post is "I certainly
| don't want to rely on CSS for anything important." I would support the idea
| of going one direction with the XHTML stylesheets and another direction with
| the HTML stylesheets.
I am not going there. If, someday in the distant future, the HTML
stylesheets can be discarded, then I'll consider maintaining
stylesheets specifically for XHTML. Until then, the XHTML stylesheets
will be a mechanical transformation of the HTML stylesheets.
Be seeing you,
norm
