Jochem: I think the website is to blame for both parts. All sites
should be cross-browser compliant. All I was saying is from a 508
standpoint it is a poor example, the fundamental objective of 508 is
to provide the same access to information, regardless of disability...
and regardless of thier browser choice. I know you don't want to hear
it, but the vast majority of users use IE, so common sense says code
to IE first, whether its standard compliant or not, then worry about
the other 5%.

Isaac. width: 1500 is a fixed size. trying using ems and changing the
text size in the browser. Rachel (my css purist fiance) gave me a
lecture on it, growing a checkbox to the entire size of the browser.
The same code in mozilla just enlarged the box model around the
checkbox but the checkbox remained small.
