Hi Martin, yeah definitely Dynamic HTML has a whole lot of its own quirks, I invested a lot of time back about that same time period before getting comfortable with it. It tends to be particularly good in the area of handling text though, with a lot of features involving text layout, word wrapping, and sizing things to fit child content. These are the reasons why I've persisted in using it for application UI for quite a long time now. And it's also the closest thing that exists to a global cross-platform "known by many" type of UI. Also it's had scripting built into it for quite a long time and the ability to bundle script code along with the UI in one package is very flexible.
