I've been trying all day to come up with a plus for IE and finally I have one. It supports display:inline-block whereas Firefox does not :D
Opera does though. So it doesn't really make IE better. Just a bug in Fx.

I still dont see why we cant create a IE vs FF list like I started. Plus, now we can add that Merri gives his honored stamp of approval on IE 7 :D
Try display : -moz-inline-block;Quote:

Oh, and I do have tons of negative reasons not to use IE6 and IE7B2 has far too many rendering problems for me to use it. I have it in my laptop but not my desktop. I guess some of you can guess the reason... (tip: I built this desktop computer myself)
How do you mean "removed" Is part of 2.1 spec right?
And yeah I've tried -moz-inline-block and -box and fiddling at the moment.
Afaik it was in the CSS specs before but then removed. Have they put it back again? I haven't read any "really knowing" stuff about it though.
It's listed in the 2.1 working draft.
http://www.w3.org/TR/2003/WD-CSS21-2...5/visuren.html
I don't know why they haven't pushed 2.1 to Recommendation yet...
Edit: What the hell is up with the W3.org page :confused:
afaik, -moz-inline-block; is not css, but is actually XUL.Quote:

Because there aren't 2 complete and interoperable implementations, which is a requirement for a Candidate Rec to become a full Rec. In other words, there aren't 2 programs out there that both fully and correctly support CSS 2.1.Quote:

Very. It's a standard at least though. Should be full Reccomendation soon then when Gecko or KHTML or someone achieves full support.Quote:

IE "lovers" Fx "haters":
- Robdog, Hack, szlamany....
- Americans over 30 years old.
Fx "lovers", IE "haters"
- NoteMe, Pengate, Merri....
- Non Americans under 30 years old.
Scary? True? Hmmm...

THATS IT! YOUR BANNED! :lol: Ha ha. :D
Other then being slightly off topic and an FF'er I dont see why you would think you'd get Banned? At least I dont think you would.
Yes, maybe there is something to this small comparison you posted.
Maybe a poll with 4 options:
IE lover > 30; IE lover < 30; FF'er > 30; FF'er < 30. :D
Nice try Noteme - but if that suggestion was true...
Then why would I have a wide-screen laptop, be running OFFICE 2003 on every workstation in my office - already have SMALL BUSINESS SERVER 2003 on my server.
Purchased Sony Vegas and DVD Architect for editing...
Well - actually the Sony Vegas is very telling - and actually on topic.
5 years ago we had Fast DV hardware capture/render card - with Speed Razor NLE. Well - Fast went out of business - Speed Razor evaporated - the editing workstation died - leaving me with about $3000 worth of useless hardware (that would not work with the new workstation) and some video files encoded with a hardware codec that are now lost forever.
So in selecting a successor - I went with Sony nle and that software render engine and software codecs.
Over 30 years old? Yes - and we own your world :D
and already have MS SQL 2005 installed on a server...
and already using VS 2005 for production software...
Talk about going off topic.. :rolleyes: What does that have to do with it?? Nothing... :rolleyes:
PS: MartinLiss more years then you can count....american....IE lover...;)

While it is true that I am an American over 30, I do not fall into the category of Fx hater or the category of IE lover. IE user, yes, but that is more because it is a standard at work than because it is my preference. hoo-wah :DQuote:

Sony=MS - purchasing from 800 pound gorillas is safer in the long run. But this point about IE has been expressed several times in the thread.Quote:

Yes, hence the smiley :bigyello:Quote:

Actually based on these figures - it's not getting much attention from the forum at all.
I didn't think you had time to get bored. :bigyello:Quote:

Nope, I disagree Hack as everyone knows I use IE and I am not a non-IT user and not because its "just there". :)
Be that as it may, that is the reason non-IT people use it. IT people can actually tell you why they use the browser that they do.Quote:

My point is that non-IT people use IE because it is there. If IE wasn't there and FF was, then they would be using FF.Quote:

I dont think such a blanket statement would apply to all non-IT people.

Steve, where did you find that anaylsis window for "Who posted" in your post #181?
I dont use the remote controls that came with either of my TVs. I use, on one TV, the remote that came with the DVD player and for the other TV I use a multi-function remote to handle all the devices ike TV, DVD, VCR,etc.Quote:

btw - I'm using FF right now to look at threads on the forum. I'm actually finding the "scroll" jumpy as the page loads - seems odd to me. Maybe you become used to a difference like that.
It also seems to load slower - but I'm going to play with both for a while and see if I can come out of the 1980's :D

I am talking about most people. Just like we talk about most people with IE...not everyone do it..but most people..we have to generalize if not all our posts will be very long if we want to write about all freaks..;)Quote:

Thanks guys! Thats a nice feature to have. I never clicked on it before as I just thought it was another link to the thread. Just like the dumb tooltip didnt relate to the username when hovered over it and showed the replies and read counts instead.
You guys have TV's with remote controls? Are they color too?

[Edit] And it is colour..:) Grrrrr @ Americans..:D
I wanted to say that I beat Noteme to the punch on that one because I replied with IE - but I think I actually replied to that one with FF :lol:Quote:
