[thelist] semantic markup

[Diane Soini]

I was prompted to write my post after visiting macromedia's site with 
NS4. It's a horror of list after list after list. Sheesh. Maybe if some 
of these lists used some other approach (like anchor tags separated by 
pipes) I might be able to understand the context of these links a 
little better. A user interface has a semantics of its own. In this 
case it was lost in a sea of bullets.

I hadn't looked at it that way before. You're right. Thanks for that!
