Hi Ricard, As a long-time web developer, trying to make cross-browser stuff work, therefore initially designing to the lowest common denominator, had been a difficult journey. Happily, a few years ago, I abandoned AOL and Apple's lag in picking up IE's capablities. And, also, the bleeding hearts of Netscape, who most times confused the issue, and always fell flat on their face whenever they issued a new browser version. Let's face reality, Firefox is just another temporary blip on the scope of confusing web development. After all, do you really believe that MS will include Firefox in their future Windows updates? Sure, if you are just a web browsing type of a viewer, then it probably just dandy. But if you want to develop sites that have serious substance, then you must base your design on the resident capablities of the IE browser. Francis
