Re: This is awesome

I DO know something about FireFox... and that is I've installed it on my PC about a dozen times over the course of 2-3 years. EACH time, I uninstalled it after I found that it couldn't render some pages properly!

You can blame the sites HTML coding all you want; however, IE had NO problem rendering the site.

Thank you, but I'll stick to my IE.

this is why there is an extension for Firefox designed specifically to let you view the site in IE just by right-clicking
Internet Explorer has too many security holes for me.
If you actually spent some time resolving issues you would know this. So far I haven't encountered a site worth much that has a problem
understand that firefox is still in the pre-1.0 stage and that those VERY FEW bugs are being worked out now.

My only problem with Firefox is that I can't get Shockwave to place nice with XP, ME is fine, XP is not. And I'm not the only one ... »forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?t=42767

Yes, but this problem seems to happen only with XP and HP together, or so my experience has been. Which I really can't explain. Was just wondering.

Perhaps, have you tried re-installing shockwave?
Maybe, there is some odd bug/"feature" that is part of the default system image from hp?

While you're creating/redefining a new web language, make sure it's implemented properly by lazy webmasters who could care less about "standards" (the same webmasters that designed the page FireFox couldn't render.)
W3C said pages & post the outcome.

Enjoy IE (the same browser that has already been dropped by Microsoft as a standalone product,) I'll enjoy the alternative (Opera in my case,) and all the benefits/features that you are hoping will get added to SP2.

btw, Opera & Mozilla render pages faster than IE.
»www.24fun.com/downloadcenter/ben···hjs.html and test your own browser.

Have fun with the exploits. They don't call it Internet Exploit for nothing.
