Well, I must agree with you there at least... but once again, I must point out that at least Word has macro's; which is almost like a formula for a markup. CSS is getting close, but I still think its moronic to have to apply 3 languages (or psuedo-languages) : HTML, CSS, and Javascript; simply to approach some form of interactivity.


And, to top it off, you still have compatability issues... again, IE still doesn't handle style sheets well.. better than it had, but not yet as well as Netscape 6.


Anyway all, thank you for all of your answers... I will disappear for a while now, and reappear shortly once I've learned some decent syntax for Perl and ready to roll.


Me


P.S. You will know me when I come back... my signature hasn't changed in forever... Im always just 'Me'
