Well said Tony I was aghast as well about so many emails about avoiding
the standards
Call it a personal preference but it is not about standards.
This attidude that "I" feel is wasting a lot of time on this group.
If you feel otherwise than using standards join a net hacking group.
It is not my personal judgment, but my committmernt to W3C standards
and consideration for my users that I regard new windows as verboten
so does W3C Strict validation probably for very good reasons.
Please no more personal preference to avoid standards.

I'm aghast at such an attitude on a web *standards* list.
in fact the whole thread contains arguments against using the
standards and they all seem to be about personal preference.
if you want to create web pages based on personal preference, why are
you a member of the web standards group?
"The Web Standards Group is for web designers & developers who are
interested in web standards (HTML, XHTML, XML, CSS, XSLT etc.) and
best practices (accessible sites using valid and semantically correct
code). We aim to:
* Provide web developers and designers with a forum to discuss
issues and share knowledge (via our discussion list and regular
meetings)
* Provide web standards information and assistance to developers
* Promote "web standards" within the development community"
perhaps we should all examine our attitudes?
