Re: ActiveX

Wow, that's flame bait if I ever heard it. I'll bite in a nice polite way.

I don't think he means that it is poorly coded just because it doesn't work on Mozilla. A poorly coded site will almost always ONLY work correctly in Internet Explorer. There are lots of other browsers out there besides IE, Mozilla...

It does make sense that web designers will make sure that the site works for the majority of their customers. It is also true that most people use IE. The thing is, a site that is coded to the W3C and other applicable standards should (in theory) work on all browsers including IE. It only takes a tiny bit more work to do it, so why not?

Like I started this post off, this is not meant to upset inteller or keep the flame going. If you disagree with my points, feel free to post about that. I will not argue back.

oh f*** that....so every website doesnt work with mozilla is "poorly coded"? That is horse shit. some companies design sites with IE in mind because the MAJORITY of their customers use it.....so they are all poorly coded too?

Same here. I only use IE when poorly coded websites don't work properly or at all.
