I wish we could have done this for CSS...then we wouldn't have to worry about who supports what (or which versions on which platforms etc.). I'd love for companies that produce User Agents be required to fully support the standards which many of them help create instead of them picking and choosing their favorite parts. I'm sick of hearing "Well, we didn't implement this because it's too hard and we don't have enough time within our product-to-market schedule." That's why they call a standard a standard....because no matter what you do you should at least support the "standard" and then innovate to your heart's content. *sigh* -- B.K.
