IE5:mac is a dead end, IMHO. It isn't shipped with Tiger any more, and Safari has taken it's place. This already was the case for Panther as far as I know (but Panther does ship IE I think). Since Jaguar and before are really ancient I think it's not unreasonable to let IE5:mac have a very low priority in your renderings issue fixing list. IE5:mac has always had it's own quirks, but again, it's unsupported and not maintained anymore. Camino, Safari and Firefox cover its place quite well on the Mac. Talking about Camino (which is a native Cocoa/Aqua skin for Firefox more or less), the site looks fine, only the recent changes in the font affect it negatively to me. The fonts are small in the tabs-bar and shortcut menus (Documentation, Resources and Community). The text now looks vertically misaligned to me in the tabs-bar and footer, in comparison how it was before the font size change. I could live with it. Here are some screenies of the font-sizes: http://dev.gentoo.org/~grobian/Afbeelding%204.png http://dev.gentoo.org/~grobian/Afbeelding%206.png -- Fabian Groffen Gentoo for Mac OS X Project -- Interim Lead -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
