Hi all,
I probably should have said this earlier, but better late than never.
As some of you already know, I work at a Web Design company in Portugal,
and as such I have access to the following platforms:
Win: IE 4, 5.0, 5.5, Opera
Linux: Mozilla, NS & Opera
Mac: IE 4, IE 5.5, NS 4, Mozilla
So
If your sites are for fun alone, no problem.
If (like most of us) you're a web developer, freelance or otherwise,
good luck selling your web site to any client (you'll need it!)...

I don't think that's even as big a issue than JAVA being
turned on. Pratically everybody (users not developers) have
cookies turned on. Every e-commerce site that I know of
uses cookies, at least for storing user ID's.
The great majority (if not almost all) people don't even

The problem with cookies is that, though you can write them,
you can only read them again (and get a new value for instance)
only if you reload a page, so I don't think you can use them
to comunicate with the browser, without reloading the page.
