With all respect, the Chrome user interface needs just as much work as it's current rendering engine. If Chrome would use Gecko, Presto and Trident all websites should render properly.
This way the interface design could get our full attention. Microsoft's homepages will never be fully compatible with other browsers. It gets there 99% of the cases which means it's going to do weird things quite often. I do realise it's a rather huge can-o-worms to do it like this but it would give Chrome an edge over other browsers and it wouldn't be an evil thing to do. But the truth is that active X is never going to work in modern browsers. The proof is in the pudding: http://ietab.mozdev.org/ http://digg.com/software/IE_Tab_in_Opera http://www.meadroid.com/neptune/about.htm Adobe used Presto for Dreamweaver, a mature technology. http://www.adobe.com/products/dreamweaver/ I know Google wants it's own rendering machine to work but to be frank I have not reported a single page when I ran into an occasional bug. If one could change the user agent the Chrome database of poorly rendering pages would expand much more rapidly. Then when you know some active-X site has lots of users you can render it in IE by default. It's the only way to fix it, this implementation could actually be finished some day. Porting to other operating systems would be so much easier. (think Google OS) I like the idea of Google building a browser but I don't like the idea other browsers would disappear over time as a result. To give an example, I made some animations in js. In Chrome the animation goes so fast you cant even see it. If I fix this with timers the FPS will drop far below being a visually appealing effect in other browsers. I promise some day I will write a separate version :-) perhaps some day Chrome will be able to understand changing the same DOM element several times in a row requires a slight delay. Until that day there is nothing wrong with either Chrome or my script. It just goes way to fast.
