What all these IE users don't realize is that it doesn't fix mistakes that other browsers may correct.

I can do my tables with really fucked up percentages and on my Mac using IE the table will display just fine using the text inside the table to decide how to draw the table, but that same table will be a mess on Windows IE. The problem is not with WIndows IE, but with the fact that my code is wrong. I've leaned what mistakes don't show up on my Mac so I try to double check those things.

Each browser handles coding errors different with some things looking ok in one browser and not another. If you want your page to look right in all browsers write proper code and they will. That being said we all make mistakes so when someone tells us that something doesn't look right in their browsers instead of telling them that they have a crap browser just fix your fucking code. That being said I do expect them to be using a recent version of a browser, don't ask me to code for Netscape 4, lol.

Actually I've become a real fan of Mozilla, especially after I changed its prefs to tell it to always show tabs and to load new tabs in the background. Going down the board and loading each thread that I want to read into a new tab by doing a right mouse click on it as I go down a read the board rocks.
