Thank you for previous hint about my wrong thread. I miss the thank in my last comment.:) Thank you. In my last comment, I said, maybe not only parser. Until now, I still wanna say: maybe not only the parser. From work time watching, You still at work time:) I enjoying 2008 BEIJING:) DuLi, previous champion, lost the GOLD in the first match, I feel a bit regret. Our reporter already give her some comfort when gather news, But duli seems feel bad, and give herself some pretext, which I regretted. I known about, indeed, Duli cannot make herself calm at some case, such as audience's speaking. Win or Lost, from nature, NOT so important, The key is participating. For me, who should believe himself. Enjoy 2008 BEIJING. Years ago, JSON out, give me some hint. We talked about quote symbols. I hope remove no-use quotes in text. because the full world people both type the key " at keyboard, that is a BIG huge waste for human time.:) Last year, Another project, from AU friends(name forgot), make a new language, it very same like with my thoughts, and it can focus CSS, because the AJAXing. Before that I not intrest in CSS. After, I make a new language too by employing ANTLR. I first apply for ant build file. Months ago, E4 hot. at meanwhile, I need a UI builder, so I dive into CSS sea. at this time, I feel, while CSS strange and why I accept it before? My other application give me an answer, it mix responsibilities. I not participated CSS forum. maybe I should. IMO, CSS self, in CHINA says, not a man, not a ghost. So, I said, maybe not only the parser.:)
And I still wanna hear Steve about legacy of SWT.:) Thank you. Regards, Qinxian 2008/8/9 Kevin McGuire <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > > I'm not sure why we'd want to write our own SAC parser.
