Reports are true; I'm doing this on the www.simonstl.com website. For an
old analysis of the results of XML-ized HTML, see
http://www.dejanews.com/getdoc.xp?AN=339640718 - note that this is pretty
old and they used <BR/> instead of <BR />. So far, my code works on most
flavors of NS, IE, Lynx, and Amaya - see my site for details. I've been
finishing (another) book, but hope to get back to this project soon.
Sometime I'd like to build a nice neat table summarizing results.
