Oh come on who you trying to fool? Believe me, the makers of Mozilla would love to have a browser in which everything works and then add stuff to it they would like to have available. As it is now almost all that they have doesn't work and probably never will work since there doesn't seem to be a consensus that that would be a good thing.
FOR EXAMPLE: I decided to get a validator for my html. To see if there was something in the html that was keeping Mozilla from playing my wav file when the page is opened. It works just fine with IE. Doesn't work AT ALL with Mozilla and probably not Netscape either. So what do I find out? Well this statememnt in the htm: <embed src="files/intel.wav" hidden width="2" height="2"><noembed>Get your plugin to hear this</noembed> what do you think the validator says about the attribute src here? It says, "there is no attribute SRC for this element (in this HTML version)." I got news for you. This is wrong. It works just fine in Internet Explorer. Doesn't work AT ALL in Mozilla. So if Mozilla is as great as you say why is it using an ancient definition of HTML and is incapable of growing with the times? Don't tell me Netscape or Mozilla is much better browser than Netscape. I'm not one to say that Microsoft is the greatest. I get pissed at them all the time. But I don't deceive myself. And I know a piece of shit when I smell it. You might smell Roses but I smell Shit! I could list in a chapter the number of common functions that Mozilla can't do anything with. Can you do that by pointing out something that Mozilla can do that Internet Explorer can not? If so prove it! Here's one for you. Mozilla cannot handle <a href="default.htm" text="Howdy">default</a>. It shows no popup. The text attribute is completely ignored. Tell Blind People that Mozilla is a good browser. I think they'd say, "I heard it all before. The seeing public thinks they know it all." I hope you know that without the text attribute in there a blind person hears "Link" not "Howdy." -- George Hester "Patrick Gallagher" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote in message [EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]... > George Hester wrote: > > >You're right man they don't.
