Excellent, all the answers I wanted are here, and I hope it is reflected in the site.  I am not going to cut n' paste, as it would then not be "mine", but great tips from great minds.  Cheers!

Kent: If all webmaster was as compentent as you, then the internet would be a better place. I mean, nothing on the internet bugged me more than being forced to google my way through frames-only websites, while IB didn't support frames.

Anybody putting up an upgrade statement for non-frame browsers (without links, nor local search to browse the site) should be hanged. That also applies to having Flash as front page with the only purpose of providing links to plain html content. Or other variation on the same theme.

Apart from that, I'm against capital punishment.

The key to building the better web sites is to develop them for text only, no javascript, no frames, and no graphics.  If the site you build still looks good without that, you're halfway home.  One site I rebuilt had java applets all over it... if the computer didn't have the right java runtime it choked, so I changed the java applet around checking for a version of the JRE, if it turned out to be false or a bad number it just displayed a graphic and didn't do anything else.  I started doing this type of stuff a few years back but then I've known html like most know their multiplication tables.

Anyway, it's late and I'm exhausted.
