| Thank him all you want, but it's only an answer if you grant him total
control
| of the viewing audience. For example, I saw no floating text, and in fact
the
| words "text" and "floats" were on the same line and so close together as
to
| make reading them an effort (the "f" overlaid the "t" and the end of
sentence
| period looked like a burl on the lower branches of the "s").
|
| In other words, it only works for a limited subset of viewers. If that's
good
| enough, have at it. But if your audience is using Netscape, forget it.
