embedded! yes! that's it!

that's exactly what i needed. thanks! now i'll have like 8 different <style>
elements in my <head>, each protecting the old browsers from themselves.

right, right; i didn't really state my case clearly. i want to have A file
to send, and i want it to work EVERYwhere, and i want it to be SMOKIN in the
newest browsers. does this sound like a possibility or a pipe dream?


thanks again.
