Okay, "guru fight" doesn't have the same ring as "chick fight"
Z -- I actually looked at that report, and decided that it was doing a fine job of hair-splitting. I think, for now, that I'm at least going to pay attention to the W3C, as I'm just starting out. You're right -- most use a WYSIWYG editor (for good reason).
I'm kinda going with the idea that when one is a novice in a discipline, one should learn the rules, and then when one has sufficiently advanced, there is the freedom to make one's own way, because the roots are strong.
Wax on, wax off, Daniel-san.
I appreciate all the input!
