Your example does not adhere to W3C Standards!

I know you are aware of this and I am just joking. :)

Each browser is such a pain where I sit down, as well as a few other places. Netscape is really “interesting” with its various iterations and quirks.

We had a major problem recently with an ASP application that took 13 months to create. After many months of successful operation something serious occurred! All was well until our corporate browser standard changed from IE 5.0 to IE 5.5. If a record was edited it was deleted! The blank record was there and void of any data!

We had to open a case with Microsoft and it took three people at Microsoft to find the problem. It seems IE 5.0 “had a bug”, which allowed specific functionality, and it had “been corrected” in IE 5.5 and IE 6.0. We never use the latest greatest version of anything around here.

One quirk Netscape had/has is it wants all /’s and \’s in the correct direction. IE does not care. A few years ago a VFP framework vendor made a major change in product and announced it was available for download. This was a critical change by the way. I only had Netscape at that time and notified the creator of the software that Netscape would not allow it to be downloaded. He was kind enough to resolve immediately what turned out to be a simple tying error (a / or \ in the wrong place) and thanked me for bringing this to his attention. The persons name is Drew Speedie.

Another framework creator whom I will not mention on the Internet made a similar mistake and told me, “no one else has complained”! (End of story) and did nothing to resolve the problem. So I refuse to have anything to do with this “fine gentleman” and his product!

Browsers combined with interaction with customers and vendors can be an interesting topic!
