huh, didn't know it is possible to "style" <BR> tag? I thought that is 
why there is <DIV> tag available?

I always thought that kind of info is just absolutly unnecessary - 
thanks ... there is something to learn each day :-)

Interesting. Yesterday I read some CSS compositing docs and I have to 
admit that it looks well thought out. Not that View would not be thought 
out, but View compositing ommits various output devices/media-types. 
What we call 'face they call 'box. It will be interesting to see, where 
Carl gets View further, as we badly miss color text capabilities, and 
once introduced, how they will complicate View/VID usage. I even thought 
for a while that there could be some "converter" from View to css 
compositing as we have flash dialect currently. Don't know if it is 
easily doable, but imo possible. We would get View display in browser. 
But what about events?

OTOH - studying css docs for one day I have to say that it is way more 
complicated than View. Maybe just a question of becoming used to 
different concept? What do others think?
