It really has nothing at all to do with the ISP. It's the trashy
browser they distribute with their software. Personally, whenever I
get an e-mail from one of my sites from an aol user that there is a
problem, I simply tell them to go download Netscape or IE, install
it, then after going online with aol, minimize it and open the REAL
browser. The vast majority of aol users that I've encountered have no
idea you can do this. Most are very grateful and my problem is
solved. I don't even get e-mails from my clients any more when they
get complaints. They know what I'm going to say, so they just respond
in kind to the person that's complaining to them. In fact, whenever I
do a ColdFusion site, my agreement with the client states that I do
not warrant the site working on aol's browser, but that I'll fix (or
try my darndest) any bugs they encounter from Version 3 forward of NN
and IE, Mac and PC.
