Troublesome especially when there is a standard: W3C
HTML - W3C standard
CSS - W3C standard
SVG - W3C standard
SMIL - W3C standard
AJAX - W3C standard
JS - W3C standard
Firefox - virtually W3C compliant
Safari - web kit (10.5) now pretty compliant
Java - now open sourced.
Ruby Rails - open sourced
PHP - open sourced

the other formats are proprietary, lock-in intended, embrace, extend, extinguish, formats. Proceed at your own risk.

What a nightmare, I'm sure glad THOSE days are over; or are they?

It seems that Havoc has been cried and the dogs of war slipped over the
battleground of RIA. Here is what I mean. Adobe Flash & Apollo v MS Silverlight & WPF v FireFox Cairo v Sun JavaFX v
AJAX JS Frameworks v APEE (Anomalous Pretty Eye-candy Engine).

At least on this war we get to choose which technology to use. On the browser wars, we were forced to deal with both browsers.
