By an overwhelming majority, web pages, both professional and amateur, are created either "on-the-fly" or by WYSIWYG editors. In both styles, almost always the tools that generate the so-called HTML are designed and coded (or just coded) by people who have no more clue about HTML than the users of the tools. And in many cases, by people who don't have a clue about how to test. -- Wes Groleau http://freepages.rootsweb.com/~wgroleau
