sheesh! even the thought of it makes me sick. but do linux users have a choice. if anyone is an active member on the "hall of shame", please add the DTE website to it, if not already done. It, in fact, deserves to top the shame-charts. With 100s of 1000s of students (n yeah, firefox users, even if they using doze) can't open this website at all to fill their online applications for admission to first year of engineering in Maharashtra. i feel designers of such a page are actually committing a crime. try it in firefox >> http://dte.org.in/fe2008 The site refuses to open in Firefox at all and pops bold black error saying it only opens in IE 6 and IE 7 till the time of posting this message!
