What's the difference? At least it's not a horrid _ or block cursor.
I've never had trouble with the | after the textx I type.

ActiveX=M$ and Windoze only. Mozilla is cross platform.

I never saw an add for AOL when I tried NS6x. But I use mozilla.

Why? They should conform to the HTML standard, and tell the users

to get a working browser. They should also not *require* a certian
browser to view a site. Give a notice, but show the content.

I've not done business with companies because I couldn't access their
site. I browse with Netscape and Mozilla on Linux, Solaris, and HP-UX.
Ifg the site says I must use Windoze and or IE, I go somewhere else
after sending the webmaster email eplaining why I won't be returning.

You don't make sense here. You saw the bugs don't go down,
then give a decreasing formula that will reach 0 someday.
