i can tell from own experience that ie tends to be very unforgiving when it
comes to frames
and sloppy me has darned them all to heck because i had to repair all my old

now that they are repaired and i have my mean and lean production machine
geared to nice and consistent code, i of course have a totally different
view on the matter (ow, i'm bad ;-).
