Making IE Standards Compliant

spin2cool writes "Dean Edwards has taken it upon himself to make Internet Explorer W3C compliant. How? Well, it isn't by patching the application, as you might suspect. He's created a stylesheet, dubbed 'IE7' that uses DHTML to load and parse style sheets into a form that IE can understand. Just include the style sheet in your HTML pages, and things should render correctly. The complexity of the CSS transformations is really amazing and shows off the power of this stuff."

Doing their job for them

[Anders Andersson]

it's a sad state of affairs when a developer outside of Microsoft actually ends up doing something that MS should have done themselves

Such as, Linus Torvalds implementing an entire operating system kernel for hardware that would otherwise be limited to software provided by Microsoft? I can really see Bill Gates getting a free ride off the collective efforts of the open source community here...

So just un-tick the 'Send Referrer' box on the prefbar.

I would think open source developers would prefer you send reefer.
