Re: FN-FORUM: CSS tutorials

It's not any easier than it was... just different. New browser
versions are coming out (some with 'super standards compliance' built
in... guess which ones) and they still don't seem to be compliant.

Lots of ongoing advances in technology and the ability to send a
manned mission to Mars... but still no single standard for rendering
pages to all web browsers.

Ah well.
