I guess I didn't make myself clear. I agree *COMPLETELY*. HTML is
*supposed* to look different in different browsers. The problem is that so
many people do not understand this. They want HTML to work like PDF does --
the exact same page everywhere. This leads to the inevitable "Only works with
Microsoft Navigator 7.36b on Apple Windows VII with a monitor set to 800x600
pixels, 15-bit color, and a reversed aspect ratio. Oh, and you need
JavaScript, VBScript, ECMAScript, PostScript, and a manuscript-in-a-bottle."
