I do find it impressive. I've tried it before and not gotten it too look that nice. I just didn't use enough divs, apparently. It's about 6, nested. BTW, the buttons aren't round.

I agree with you that web design with HTML is pretty sad in comparison to just about any purpose designed desktop client library. You get about 1/10 of the form controls you get out of the box with, let's say, VB6, and it's tough to extend.
