I recommend that we keep the case of the HTML all lowercase. Currently it is mixed (with

being lowercase while others are uppercase). I ask that we stick with all lowercase

[edit] please ditch document.write/document.writeln

It is deprecated. It won't work in XHTML.

Noobs will get used to it and have problems understanding that it won't work later in onclick, forms, etc.
