The author of this web , may indeed, be taking this course of action. And 
even though, I threw out the proposal, more or less, to give Capt. Fuzzy a 
bad time, and hopefully promote a discussion--There are more and more out 
there who ARE going that route simply because their clients are NOT HTML 
geeks like us. And like others mentioned--they don't give a damn how correct 
the code is--they just want the results--in their browsers--and most are 
using IE-5.

Thanks Ted, I appreciate the sentiment. I think you enjoy arguing with me
almost as much as I do ;-).

Oh yea, the point of this message . . .

I really have to say, that IF my customer used MSIE 5.x ~or whatever~ and
my work did not work in their browser, I would fix it. To hell on a horse
with the w3. So . . . in that respect, I agree completely - couldn't agree
more.

However, and here's the rub I know you know is coming . . . 

If you'll write to a ratified DTD you will not have problems . . . like
your HTML help site crashing browsers . . . I mean Duuuuuh! (sorry, I
wasn't going to go there!).

Anyway,
I'm real glad to see you back Ted. If you want your testing to be a little
shorter next time, send me your doctors e-ddress. I'll be happy to have a
word with him.

 :-)
Fuzzy.
