Definitely a good point. I've always liked the fallback mechanism the Open eBook publication format uses (http://www.openebook.org/oebps/oebps1.2/index.htm). The idea is that you can specify display elements with alternate elements, depending on the device viewing said element. That'd be quite handy on the Web, methinks. I'm surprised it hasn't been picked up, especially in regards to the display of alternate stylesheets. Sadly, this is still in the purview of scripting tricks. --->Ben
