Agree. It's not a problem here because I use Mozilla and Firefox since years. But: The customer is king. I must use what my clients can read. They don't care what could have been better, they care about whether it's readable right now, by a simple click on the file. And there PNG wins hands down, at least right now. -- Regards, Joerg http://www.analogconsultants.com/
