It's a choice of the webmaster whether he/she considers something like 1-5% as a lot. > What is it that IE 5.5 for Windows can do > that 5.2 for Mac can't? > ... > Brenda Andre-Piere Limouzin is using modern techniques like XML and VML. These techniques are not yet widely supported. I already tried to explain him he should do the translation from XML to HTML before publishing the pages, but failed to convince him, perhaps if more complain... He does speak English but he explained me English emails are likely to be ignored (considered spam). As for the utf-8 Character Encoding, that might be caused by being French. I'm using myself VML on http://www.xs4all.nl/~falkink/lace/grid-NL.html only supported by MS-IE 5.0 and newer. This technique creates pictures that are razorsharp on paper and at any scale. There is an alternative for VML but then visitors have to install something similar to acrobat reader for PDF files. So I had a choice: disappoint some of my vistors for a small part of my site, or enforce all to download software, which they usually won't do: afraid of trouble, too 'puter-illiterate or too lazy.
