I'm considering two changes to the stats pages, and I'd like your input.

1. CSS - I have a version of the pages redone in CSS. There's no real change in the presentation, but it does make the HTML more W3C compiant (thanks to AgentM for running a scanner, and noticing these). The majority of browsers seem to support CSS, but I know that AgentM is running iCab, and it doesn't support CSS. How many people would this effect, and what's your opinion on changing over to that?

2. Cookies - Over the months, there are a few people who are rather outspoken on their distaste for cookies. However, if I added (non-mandatory) cookie support, I could allow setting a default page, and perhaps a few other features. I don't want to add user/login support to keep track of preferences. Would non-mandatory cookies be OK with you folks?
