Seems that CSS calendar script is only working in IE8 and the latest Firefox (didn't check it on earlier versions of FF) everything else showed layout issues. Not bad for a "quick throw together" though. As far as Semantics et al. The next 2 years the web will be shifting into newer directions, become much more robust and "intelligent". Obviously it isn't a true intelligence yet. Things like Wolfram Alpha are still to be seen. I hear a lot of hype regarding this new Google killer yet until I see it... Web 3.0 (or the true 2.0 depending on who you ask) will change how many of use view and develop for the WWW. I hope there are some serious back room discussions on the laws of robotics. :) -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php __________ Information from ESET Smart Security, version of virus signature database 4081 (20090517) __________ The message was checked by ESET Smart Security. http://www.eset.com -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
