If I am wrong..well..then I am wrong. I'm really doubting if a server side WYSIWYG webdesign system is possible. By its nature a website is a quite statical thing and it's surely not intended to be used as dynamic WYSIWYG environment[1]. Use Java for that purpose, I'd say. Best regards, Gabriel [1] Well PERHAPS some ugly hacks of resizeable/moveable layers in conjuction with massive Javascript would result in a kinda like WYSIWYG system but overall, I don't even the like that idea.
