always the same promisses from m$. Look at IE3.0 and his extensions when OS/2was growing up with Netscape/mosaic browser.
M$ O-2007 will be integrated witin the OS like IE. IE does not follow the simple html-rules why should O-2007 follow this rules? |

the html stuff is far worse than you know.
If MS had had their way, with a worldwide web running all on IIS and MSIE, there would be no standards. I won't get into the boring details, but it went well beyond just not supporting html standards, to the actual interaction between browser and webserver. Luckily, that failed, mainly due to the superiority of Apache, and because Firefox broke the near total monopoly. |
