"Anyone who slaps a 'this page is best viewed with Browser X' label on a Web page appears to be yearning for the bad old days, before the Web, when you had very little chance of reading a document written on another computer, another word processor, or another network." -Tim Berners-Lee Proper web site design demands that pages, even if they use advanced non-standard features of some particular browser, should degrade gracefully, rather than failing outright, if a browser other than their preferred one is used. Unfortunately, with far too many web developers using HTML generators, rather than hand-coding their pages, and far too few testing questionable code across several browsers before going live with it, this is becomming increasingly uncommon. http://www.anybrowser.org/campaign -- James H.
