Woah... I couldn't understand a word of that. Try and be a bit more legible. For example, did you mean "wroks with my favort pron" to be "works with my favorite porn" or something else? :blink:
 
Feel free to sign me up although I use Firefox secondarily to Mozilla. It's still the same Gecko rendering engine (*cough* for now) and the same good reasons to use it (better standards compliance and fantastic extensions). Adblock Plus and the Web Developer extensions alone are worth going over to them.

But honestly? I'm more in the "just use anything other than IE" camp, not because IE is MS, I could care less about that, it's the fact that IE's incorrect rendering of markup and style makes life hell for web developers and keeps some sweet pluginless stuff from happening regularly on the web.

Did you notice the </parody> tag at the end of his post? He was making fun of IE users, making them seem stupid and not-so-tech-savvy. :smiley:

I love firefox. The best thing ever is that there is no effing "This page cannot be displayed" bs. It's just a little dialog box, and you can edit the URL right there, without having to cut out all the URL that you get from the Cannot Be Displayed page....

:love:

Not all, just the one character I was playing, there. Although I've met people who are actually like that, not just the typing ability but the total refusal to understand what's wrong with IE (or any mainstream software or hardware) and equal refusal to give any alternatives a chance.
 
sign me up!
the ie on my home comp gave it viruses and tonnes of pop-ups, w/ firefox I don't get any :smiley:

where do you get the themes for browsers?

Seriously, I was perfectly content with IE and then I just decided to check FF out. Boy, was I wrong about IE. It's a lot slower, doesn't have as good pop-up protection (IE we're talking about here), and it just does all these annoying things. Switching to FF was a great choice for me.
 
So basically you believe prevention means squat and have no knowledge of web standards, the W3, what the document object model is, what CSS is, how correct rendering of CSS should behave, what ActiveX is, why ActiveX is a security risk and why-and-how IE is wrong on all of it?

Yes yes, of course, you're right. All we need are patchwork security programs and fast connections. That'll solve everything.
 
Haha Vesh....the problem is that doesn't matter for the casual user. Really, only web designers are the ones who know how stuff renders differently in each browser...

And Juju -- I have a cable connection which is very fast, but I noticed a significant increase in speed when I switched to FF.

I know... just trying to press the issue that things aren't at all as simple as most zealotous IE users seem to think.

Also, you used a bad word there - the rendering isn't different, it's flat-out incorrect.
