Just a note. The a two page article link takes you to a subscription page for the NY Times. I didn't subscribe - just because I usually dont subscribe to things like that just to read a link from another page. So it could become counter-productive to the argument (even though it is not

[WSG] Why style to IE?

Something I've been thinking about: Why do people limit themselves to CSS which IE and handle? Lest I be misunderstood, please allow me to explain. Most of IE's CSS failings can be simulated with JavaScript, so why not take advantage of it? For the most part, for those who wouldn't see the
