Betsie was for an age when only one version of a site was usually
produced. The advent of CSS and more importantly I think, XSLT and XML
means it's much easier and cleaner to produce XML datasets of websites
and parse the contents through XSLT to produce differing compliant outputs..

Betsie's days are no doubt numbered - modern coding techniques allow
much greater accessibility to be built into webpages, allowing
accessibility without having to resort to parsers like Betsie. You can
do a huge amount with a sensible HTML structure and CSS
layout/presenation techniques.
I assume that y'all have read the code (of BETSIE)?
