Im sorry but you never ever suggest to a client that the site will not work in IE, 9 time out of 10 a client will only know about IE. If your suggesting standards you should know what and what not to do to make a standard site work accross all browsers.
I would never ever suggest a site will take longer to do due to getting it to work in IE, if you have to do that state that there will be a extra "Testing Period" in which you will be working over multiple platforms and browsers to check all features are compatible. Your never gonna get a client that says "i dont want this to work in ie!" and if you ever did it more than like'ly the person could do it them self ***************************************************** The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ See http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm for some hints on posting to the list & getting help *****************************************************
