First, the question was asked and answered as best I could. Perhaps 
you find fault my method/solution, but I find mixing languages allows 
me to do more than I can by being limited to just one. However, your 
" comment was right on -- I shall look into that -- thanks.

Second, as long as my multilingual coding produces w3c compliant 
pages, I'll keep with my way of doing things. I may not be the best, 
but I do try to practice what I preach.

Incidentally, unless the w3c markup validation is broke, all the 
above references as well as your site fails validation.

That's a bit like the pot calling the kettle black isn't it?  Just 
take a look at all the hacks that are currently used in css and the 
topics, problems, and solutions presented on this list -- despite 
everyone's good intentions, css is hardly hack-less. We can't ignore 
the man behind the curtain.

As such, mixing a few languages together to solve problems certainly 
isn't any worse. It's the old evolution thing of adapt or die, don't 
you think? I wonder where/how css will end up?
