Hi all;
When I made my proposal to the national corp. I mentioned previously, they 
asked me if the site would be scalable. Now, I consider scalability to mean 
where *all* components scale, like can be seen on this masterpiece:
http://php.net/
where everything scales to the resolution of the user's monitor. Well, as 
Steve Serra (and others) would rightly say, that's *way* beyond my ability, 
and I told the client that. (It wasn't on his spec sheet, either ;-) Then I 
got to thinking (uh-oh)...
What if I could build the site such that it could be retro-fitted for 
scalability? Is this possible? Is it feasible? Or is it of such a nature, 
that it'd be damn near impossible? If it is possible and feasible, how 
would I do it? TIA,
BenO
