You need the ability to list tables for integration with tools such as Firebug. Apple is adding table introspection to Safari's equivalent of Firebug. How should Firebug or some other third-party tool achieve it? Regards, Leons Petrazickis http://lpetr.org/blog/ On 10/20/07, Křištof Želechovski

I have not got the original Mr. Cox's suggestion so I can reply only indirectly. 1. CSS does not have elements, it defines attributes. 2. "active: none" is language abuse, it should be "playback: none" or "active: disabled". Chris -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL P
