Hi Mike!
Of course your are right and I already done this for the new generation
browser.
This was our first goal was to create styles for these browsers, which
perfectly utilize CSS.
It is finished and now I am working on the output for other user agents.
Their output depends on the already inherited (collected) style
properties.
By the way Netscape 4.x has the strange behavior to recognise some
styles hard coded in the tag but not in the header style
(e.g. color - any list of them existing?).

This works fine in the "Netscape 6 Preview Release 1" and "Internet
Explorer 5.x".
