Raining on Internet Explorer Blues

Saturday, 4 August 2007

As you can see, I am updating my blog to give it a fresh new look. Whether its the weather (try saying that quickly!) or the fact that I am just too busy to mess around with browser bugs - too impatient to be patient - I am currently having visions of drowning everyone responsible for Internet Explorer. I remember back in the 1980’s when computer gurus promised we would be seeing Standards and were soon heading for cross-browser compatibility. Is it unreasonable to think that 20 years is a long, long time to wait?

Well, I’m still waiting as is the rest of the world. The site uses valid XHTML1.0 Strict Code. It looks exactly as it should do in Firefox. And is completely broken in Internet Explorer.

Guess what I will be spending Sunday working on? That’s right - coding this new look site around the IE bugs.
