I concur.

Sounds interesting, especially the multi-platform benefits. Does 
IT handle exceptions?

I lean more towards Dennis's views on this one, i.e. it is 
remarkable how much can be done, and done well, with a generic 
HTML design approach, without all the D-HTML or ActiveX derived 
whistles and bells). All the extra-bonus-features GUI in the world 
doesn't necessarily help get the job done faster or more easily. 
Besides, we can use it (D-HTML) if we so choose: we're not in a 
zero-sum game here...
