*rolls eyes* Disclaimer: I may have the first and last backwards. Firefox may pick the last and IE the first. I just know they never AGREE on which one to display by default.

i would imagine the spec specifies, but if it doesn't, then it's not obvious whether to pick the first or the last, is it? so why roll eyes at one way or the other? anywho, it doesn't really matter either way, since you can make the last a duplicate of the first if you have several... meanwhile, even though the experts have had their conclave, and discussed this,that, and the other thing, and then retired to their corners, these .html files _still_ don't work for me... -bowerbird
