Hi all,
I like the CSS support and noticed the mouseovers straight away. After
dumping my job as a research chemist, I now work for a bunch of new media
lot called Sift, and am building a website which uses CSS extensively for
display attributes (will be 'live' - though boring - shortly). Its
surprising how close it looks to the NS and IE rendering (though see my
comments earlier about loading images I *know* are there!)
I had no problem with most of the font styles, but I think some text went
unexpectedly invisible - the <A ..> tags are defaulting to white, and we use
a white background. Our css is set up to colour 'em red on mouseover, which
they do; seems to me, if arachne doesn'y fully understand the css, it should
use defaults or at least the 'standard' blue - active / purple - visted
convention for links.
It *does* look like the html overrides the css (at least in tables), which
can be nice if the backgrounds don't show up the text properly - local edit
will do the trick.One thing tho - how to get at the stylesheet to edit that?
On further investigation, it turns out that identical chunks of code behave
differently - I duplicated a table row with links in it, and found that
while some of the links weren't showing hover correctly, when copied, the
copies displayed ok. That is, some turned red, some didn;t and it was kinda
random.... see
Hristo Iliev' comments...

Anyway, keep up the good work all of you involved in the 'evolution' of
arachne! I know it's just beta, but it looks really promising.
Will probably write more on this but I reckon css support would be of more
use to list members than javascript right now. Nice one, Michael.
