Acknowledged. I didn't mean to suggest replacing HTML/CSS with
PostScript or PDF. I meant "document" in a general sense; an entity
containing information meaningful to a human.
I'm not aware of a good replacement for HTML/CSS. It's an open
question. Anything proposed now is certain to encounter lengthy
debate and revision before reaching a consensus.
Thx, ... P.
