Internet pollock Exploder! Open Web Now! End the Microdaft Occupation!

It's ok. I feel better now.

What had happened, if i may ask?

GR's site only works with IE so I have to go upstairs to use a pissy to access it.

What happened to good old, bog standard HTML?

I tried it both with Firefox and Opera and no problem occured. To the contrary opened faster.

Ooh I'll get a firefox upgrade and see. Thanks Insan.

I don’t know what the hell is going on Bill, there may exist browser wars between the giants but anyway… this is what I came up with:

PS: There’s nothing wrong with having more than one browser installed.

Herein lies the reason why some websites don’t display/behave correctly unless viewed in IE…

Vector Markup Language (VML)
http://www.sjsu.edu/faculty/watkins/vml.htm

From Microsoft…

There must be hundreds of thousands of websites out there that include these kind of instructions not showing correctly in other browsers, so the next time you dismiss a website as “crap” for not working/looking right you might want to have a rethink about your browser not supporting VML!
