atw: Re: Blatant browserism? [SEC=UNCLASSIFIED]

Oh boy, can I tell you all. CSS and browser compatibility. I did a website for 
a lawyer a while back, and she wanted the look to be the same in any browser, 
which I reckon is fair enough.

 

WELL.

 

It took one day to get the layout to work in IE. Four months of jiggery pokery 
with the CSS, and other code to get the damn site to like right in every 
browser.

 

I don’t do websites much anymore...

Regards;

Warren.

Christine's advertisement said

It isn't the browsers that don't work, it's whoever designed the web page! 

(Some web designers would say that it's IE that doesn't work - in terms of 
implementing the W3C specs.)

are already good with 2003 and use my book to fast track your changeover.
