Yes, I knew it is possible ;-)

I just feel the opposite sense is the correct one (from the root to  
the final item).

There are things I disagree in Mac OS X.

Certainly.

Well, in my opinion, HTML (and all these web stuffs) is not real  
programming since you can't control everything available on the OS.
Can you eject a CD with HTML?
Or show a dialog window whose MacProcID=1046 (movable dialog with  
resize box)?
Etc...

(Well, when I was forced to learn HTML, javascript and php, it was  
not possible).
