Be sure to see the Ajax toolkits from other vendors as well. I'd be careful
in embracing Google because they snub Web standards and validation tests as
well (for speed gains through bandwidth).
Extract from an E-mail message source, sent by my boss (he uses Outlook
2003):
@list l0:level2
{mso-level-text:"%1\.%2";
mso-level-tab-stop:none;
mso-level-number-position:left;
mso-level-legacy:yes;
mso-level-legacy-indent:0pt;
mso-level-legacy-space:7.2pt;
margin-left:0pt;
text-indent:0pt;}
Needless to say, that's not CSS. It's MS 'CSS'.
These E-mails are ~40KB in size. But they are one-liners. Amazing.
Best wishes,
Roy
PS - I had a little typo in Atlas.
