Yep.  I'm a dum ass

It's a map, not a scale drawing!

>Having a scale drawing...

sigh...  this is pedantic, amd patronising.  I'm awair ever pixel isnt 
rendered to x meters of reality.  The over all aim is to be in scale, but 
there is artistic liecence.

Interesting you use the word ''we''.. as an outsider I must therefore be 
wrong.

>but use the standard tagging

I can't.... it doesn't work.  period.

Everythings been said, somethings have been read.  I really don't think 
there is anything more to say.  I shall discuss this with people willing to 
move forward, at some point, but until then I shall continue with what I am 
doing, wich is keep as close to the standadised page as posible, but using 
additional tags where nessesery.

If anyone can help me with the problem, please email me.

Ben
