Just curious to see what the demographic is like here. I'm coding my website with xhtml1.0-strict with CSS. Internet Explorer is not fully standards compliant, so I was trying to decide wether it was worth my time to hack my code to get the site to display correctly for you IE using bastards.

IE here too. Now that we got the two guys out of the way that use IE, you can carry-on John.

Oh, I might be the one guy who uses the archaic combo of IE and Dial-up.

Mozilla means less pop-ups, better security due to less hackers expecting to get into your system, and it just sticks it to the Microsoft man who forces it down your throat when you load up Windows.

. . . but 99% of people who own any kind of stock own at least some amount of Microsoft (at least in a mutual fund) . . . so you are the man . . . so you're sticking to yourself.




























J/k I use Firefox too. It loads faster and generally seems to work better, plus I like that the security settings actually do what I tell them to do.

FireFox FTW!! IMO, it's so much that IE sucks/is slower/etc, I just can't live without tabs anymore.

If you had bad experiences with Firefox, you should try version 1.5 (recently released). It works well with 90% of the internet. In the really rare cases when I hit an issue, I just launch IE. Otherwise, Firefox works vastly better.

Well the good news, is that I got by the validation crap and installed IE7 Beta 2. It looks like the next IE release is going to conform finally. It fixed it's box model and CSS2 functions are going to work right! I'm just going to keep the code valid and once IE 7 is officially released, everyone will see it the way it's supposed to look/work.

I use firefox, mostly because of tabs, but also add ons like adblocker and proxyswitcher and stuff like that.

IE ONLY.

I hate firefox. I hate tabs. Firefox messes up the display of so many websites, it's not funny.



IE stinks... but it's the best of the worst for me
