[thelist] Delete all FP Code

[Gregory Wostrel]

Curiously, I find myself with the same sort of task and about the same 
size. In my case i am using GoLive 6 and BBEdit6.5 on Mac OSX. I also 
have Dreamweaver MX. I have started through the job but am overwhelmed 
at the size of it. Just a mess of "dynamicanimation" and "font face" 
and a maze of tables.

BTW, I think as all CSS layouts and XHTML take solid hold and the 
benefits become obvious to everyone (read: Clients) there is going to 
be a lot of (worthwhile) work doing this sort of thing.

Anyone have any tools?

Thanks from me as well
