Hi David, Thanks for your feedback. In reply: 1) You'll note my use of "my" and "I and "philosophy" (not being snide here...just making a point). These words were chosen explicitly because I believe we have the choice of which tools to employ to solve certain problems. Some people like Flash. I hate it. Some people think Java is tops. I can't stand it. To each his own. I was expressing my own view on the topic and why, as a result, I wouldn't be integrating the CSS menu into theholiergrail (a site I developed and maintain). Additionally, you'll note that not only did I make no argument /against/ the provision of such CSS-only solutions, I provided one. 2) I'd be interested to know how these results were gathered and where I could get a hold of them. I've made this claim for a while now (based on word-of-mouth) in support of Unobtrusive Javascript and Progressive Enhancement but have not found a source on the web which provides a reliable and comprehensive analysis of what users DO and DO NOT generally have installed and/or enabled on their computers. Anyway, thanks again for writing and for sharing your points. --Bill -- /** * Bill Brown * TheHolierGrail.com & MacNimble.com * From dot concept...to dot com...since 1999. ***********************************************/ ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ List policies -- http://css-discuss.org/policies.html Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
