agreed, I won't discuss that, it's obvious that we all have times that lynx
is the only one available, just saying that it ain't that much!

no, please! don't say that! my only consern was not 'visual design', but
funcional design, I'll try to explain: sometimes, when you design a page,
tables don't align with each other, paragraphs are not indented, etc.. and
thats when css has to be used. thats the kind of 'not so simple' stuff I was
talking about, not 'space age maketing design'!
for reference check my site, http://pxb.ods.org, it's in Portuguese, but
comment the style(aside for frames!), if it is down, it's the stupid IIS
that can't serve for more than 1 day! I burned my redhat server's power
supply!!! now I have to live with ms until my lazy ass decides to restore my
server.

some times, sparsed and well distributed info, make the dense paragraph easy
to read.
