Interesting. You know several of those pages have issues when browsing them from Internet Explorer, yet they work perfectly well in Firefox.
I think I remember that IE is the most non-standards compliant browser released to date.
That's sad... and I hear web page masters have to code their pages specifically to get IE to work correctly due to this fact.

I think I remember that IE is the most non-standards compliant browser released to date.You got that right. I remember when I still had my blog, coding the stylesheets used to be such a pain. The output would be different in IE and FF and I'd spend hours trying to make them look alike. I gave up eventually.
Talking about standards, these are the results of webstandards.com's Acid Test 2.0:
Perfect Result:

I think it's safe to say that FF is a 100 times better than IE, at least in terms of compliancy with web standards.
