I'm thinking this is why some of the bugs that are filed maybe look ok in IE but are not in Mozilla = evangalism (fun, fun), but the opposite is true.. :) Read for more: Found at http://firingsquad.gamers.com/games/winxp/page10.asp
-dennis ----------- Internet Explorer 6 IE6 has two modes of website rendering: W3 Consortium standard and... "error" mode. If you've ever wondered why certain sites look broken on Netscape's Navigator, they're actually being displayed correctly; IE is the one that was displaying things improperly. Since IE became so popular, everyone started coding for it not realizing that IE wasn't fully W3C compliant. Therefore websites that looked perfect when viewed with IE, actually could be coded incorrectly. Microsoft attempts to satisfy everyone with the dual display mode of IE6. You can switch from W3C standard to IE layout depending on which site you want to view. This gives web programmers more flexibility when testing out their website designs. There's no longer a need to install Navigator to make sure your website looks right on all browsers (news we're sure Netscape will hesitate to applaud). Despite this useful feature, certain websites still don't function properly no matter what mode IE is in. Certain dropdown menus don't appear in IE6 but do in IE5. This makes it traversing through certain menu driven sites rather difficult but nothing a little persistence can't handle.
