Hi, Murray, and many thanks for your informative reply.
I thought that some of the HTML on the newer pages looked sort of, um,
exotic, but I don't really have the experience to make that judgement. And
I'm less worried about conflicts - I know they will occur, but hopefully not
horrible ones.
I do have a question about one sentence in your reply. You say that a good
coder can use FP and produce a page that is authoring system agnostic. I'm
probably not that good, but I learn fast...where can I get some pointers on
how to do that, or is this truly one of the trial-and-error things?
Again, thanks.
Steve E.
