Why can't even basic CSS code work between IE and Firefox?!

[Deja Q]

All this hand coding for nothing now?! (the menu works; it just positions itself lower than it ought to in Firefox... !&#^$@#&^ )

At least it's CSS, all I need to is add in a truckload of code that tells each browser what to go do with itself...

When will all these companies G.T.F.U. and standardize? (or maybe that's why they're all going microsoft... :crazy: )

1. Because IE is the suckiest browser in known space

and everybody insists on "standardizing" on it, for some inexplicable f*cking reason.

Firefox is more compliant than IE, but I have to deal with IE every day. I feel your pain. It sucketh. :hug:

2. Because Internet Explorer refuses to ccomply to web standards.

3. Microsoft is the one that's non standards.

Firefox complies with the so-called "standards" better than Internet Explorer. It is that Microsoft wants its own way on everything. Take Massacheusets... the State wants to have an Open format for the storage of documents in its computer system, and .DOC, .XLS and .PPT type files as that generated by Microsoft Word, Excel and Powerpoint are not open. So they have decided to adopt the OpenDocument standard instead, which MS's main competitive package (OpenOffice) supports... Microsoft intends not to support it and instead wants to put in its own "open" standard.

Besides Internet Explorer 6.x is getting out of date.

Mark.

4. IE improperly inteprets the CSS box model

It's confusing until you get used to dealing with it.

you how technically lame I am. :eyes:

I'm still a nice person, though. heheh.
