Yeah, but supporting ns4, lynx, and screen readers aren't a good enough
reason to NOT use CSS.

I would love to see 2.18 come out with spiffy new "enterprise" looking
(and yes, I hate that buzzword too) search/show_bug/attachments pages. It's
stupid, but non-techy business people like flashy interface. Do we have any
interface developers on the project?

>From a project standpoint, one of the reasons all that work implementing TT
was done was for exactly this contingency: so we *can* support lynx and
screen readers, and yet still develop a clearer interface that doesn't look
like ass.

One the largest complaints I hear "on the street" about Bugzilla is it's
"too complicated (looking)" to use; "too much information for n00bs to be
able to use it."

I have to say I agree with them...

Later,
Paul
