I agree to that, though I won't call Netscape stupid just because it
really tries to display everything correctly even if there are errors.
It's amazing how many Javascript errors don't bother Netscape at all.
That's what I call an 'interpreter'!!

Yes! I'd love to do that, especially with my dictionary-stile
collection.
Now you need a www-robot to download it. (BTW: I really do that to
create a
mirror at home.) But I'm limitted to 5MB and there's no space left for a 
zip-file and I guess Joan's got the same problem.
