All Things Microsoft > Microsoft as a Company
US copyright office thinking of going partially IE only
xyle_one:
Last I read firefox continues to gain market share. It is still growing fast.
Not that it matters, but just about everyone I know uses it :/
hm_murdock:
Safari is unrelated to Mozilla. It's KDEHTMLthingamajig based.
worker201:
My bad. You are correct - Safari is KHTML-based.
Interestingly, according to Wikipedia, KHTML is far less error tolerant than Gecko, the rendering engine of Mozilla. I would actually consider that a good thing, since it forces people who write sites for Safari and Konqueror to actually be intelligent and pay attention to their code.
noob:
anything that will only work with M$ peoducts is crap. my sites dont work with ie at all. theres a few bugs in firefox that i use to my advantage. like, in a frame or iframe, the bgcolor of the page in it is the same as tha main background unless it is specified in the frame-page.

So basically, you don't like the W3C because it produces pages that show up properly in ALL browsers (MSIE included)? What about Safari, Konqueror, and Galeon? You realize that makes you worse than Microsoft, since you're effectively telling MSIE not to view your site and thus shooting any potential "switch to *x* browser" effort you may launch squarely in the foot? I mean, don't take this personally, but don't you think you're being a little petty by shutting out browsers like that? What if somebody has Firefox identifying as MSIE to get into, say, their bank's billpay site? What then? :p
