I think it was around the beginning of 2007. The idea was to move all of the form widget styling attributes to a style element - to cut down on the amount of form attributes. We made a preliminary move in that direction by putting all of the form styling attributes on their own line - so that later they could be contained in a separate element. -Adrian
