How about buggy or partial CSS implementations? I wouldn't dare explaining to my

I'd love approaching things the way tou do but I can't.

Please let me know if you find anything like the thing you mentioned, that's exactly
what I'm looking for, on the server side, possibly in java.

Thanks for considering my problem,
