Koen, we are using and paying a wt license since two years now. We have choosen WT for a simple reason, and I guess other have adopted Wt for the same reason: *Never ever put your hands in html/css coding* at first glance with the new layout we tought that we had only learn again how to use layout in WT. I can understand tons of bugs in the new layout managment but I wouldn't expect that the reason we adopted Wt was not valid anymore. Please tell us that is not mandatory to use CSS-based layouts. Regards Gaetano Mendola PS: We are still not able to port our application to new layout manager. -- cpp-today.blogspot.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Monitor your physical, virtual and cloud infrastructure from a single web console.
