Yep, would be a simple solution, but sadly since nearly 80% of folks
insist on using IE it is hard to use a STANDARD feature that will not
work with 80% of your site's visitors. The JavaScript, although not as
elegant, will break less....
Often in this NG folks say 'supporting a standard is meaningless' but I
say as a designer, until there is cooperations and compliance, web
design will continue to be a PITA and websites will continue to break....
Job security I guess!
