i wonder what would happen if we didn't code for it at all.  are there 
more web standard coders than not?  would that not be the way to force 
microsoft's hand, maybe, and have them step into line.  is there a move 
to ask adobe and macromedia to make their wysiwyg programs write code 
that validates and are to w3c standards?  that would really force 
microsoft to adjust to the industry instead of the industry adjusting to 
microsoft.
