Hi,

all i say is that i don't want to have to check on the browser version 
and type AGAIN! Remember when you had to watch out, if the browser the 
client was using was ie 4 or netscape (with all the different versions) 
or perhaps opera so that you THEN knew how to do things right?

If ms really did it right, then yeah, no prob on my side, but because i 
simply don't believe they will ...

cya.
