I seem to remember that the main objections were: a) performance issues (as there is the potential, with ancestor queries, to run very slow depending on how deep the DOM tree is) b) issues of progressive rendering (a parent element may already appear, then, based on a deeply nested child element, the appearance may have to flip/change, causing unpleasant flashes of presentation) P ________________________________ Patrick H.
