Agreed and along that, my clients have'nt to care about the details that
make, for example, them unable to post data to the servers because the
misconfigured browser, because the forgotten password,... that make them
unable to print "readables" reports from the web pages (even when i
offer to them the htmldoc online utility that let them display on the
fly the webpages as PDF outputs). Because my master clients don't want
to let the reports writers spend to much time in web datas reporting
tasks, they are ok to pay to have the best doables tools even if
Netscape or Explorer have to be replaced by fine "home-made" web
conectables multimedia front-ends.
