Wow. Think there's a chance a weighted average might clear up the discrepancy you can't get past? Now if you don't mind, I'll be outside motivating the bumblebees.
Err, chief? You can get a pad for $19.95. Admittedly, the pad kinda sucks, but that's what I did to make sure I wasn't going to hate the game. You can get a console for $150 (or get an old PS1 for a lot less). And just don't buy the latest version of the game. They're all pretty much the same. A used copy of an older version will set you back maybe $19.95. So what's that cost you, $100-200?
You must be a wonder in client meetings. The unfortunate reality of things is any site you want to have a chance in the world needs to look good in IE. This does not apply to warez sites targeted at 14 year-olds.
I recently completed work on a user interface/ front-end that only had to work in IE6. The client mentioned they had checked it out in Mozilla and were suprised it worked so well. I explained I always build in Moz to get as close to future standards-compliant as I can, then hack it to work in IE. It was clear they weren't happy with that approach because I didn't stick to IE. Sure I made a better interface that will work for a larger audience and (probably) last longer, but I didn't concentrate on IE.
Good point. I never even considered "shift" as a possibility. In fact, I'm going to start babbling half-baked ideas and explain I'm just providing a paradigm shit, like a one-man brainstorm held on the hopper.
What you're missing is that the Original Poster has two email accounts, one of which is clu3l3ssn00b or something and he mails himself all manner of unrealistic tripe and then sends back his amazing insights about what the user should be doing.
Most of the problems I see with Excel stem from users, not the program. We get spreadsheets from clients (and the sales side of the building) that should be in anything but a spreadsheet. But the client either doesn't have or is afraid to use Access or a real database, so they sodomize an Excel worksheet until it does what they want.
NESN (owned by the Bruins and Red Sox) here in Boston broadcasts all home games in HDTV. It's painful to watch the away games, doubly so because NESN's HD broadcast outshines ESPN and NBC.
TV's not a focal point of my life. But I like watching sports and you get to see a lot more with HD. Plus the aspect ratio makes movies more enjoyable.
+1 Literal. I doubt he built a HDTV as well. That's not exactly the point though. Do you find it disturbing that it would be illegal for you to buy a bunch of parts, assemble them into a TV and forget to add a broadcast flag switch? But legal for you to do the whole thing with the flag.
See, if you remove the TV manufacturer from examples, things become a little clearer. That's the idea of a good example. So the question is no longer, "Why doesn't company X build a TV the way I want", but "Why the fuck can't I do whatever I want with a TV I built/ bought?" I paid for it. It's mine. I own an X-Box and if I mod it I'm violating the law?!

So that's a "No" on the question "Have you ever used stored proceudres" then? 'Cause it sure sounds like you don't get it. The good news is your current ratings suggest you're not alone.

Thing is, I can do that now. Don't relatively path backgrounds (don't provide background images at all), don't use "//" style comments (which aren't valid CSS anyway), don't try to do anything beyond basic positioning, etc.
Or just don't pass anything to NS4 by hiding all of your CSS (instead of just most of it) using the "@import" statement. Voila: all text. No choking.

CSS doesn't "degrade"? What do you even mean by that? I've built any number of sites that look pixel-perfect in "modern" browsers, looks slightly styled and readable in NS4 and look gorgeous in Lynx. CSS isn't supposed to degrade in the sense of millions of colors to 256 to 16 to 4; it allows you to present content in different ways to different user agents. One of those different ways is with no styles at all.

IE5 Mac has some serious issues, but it's much more CSS-compliant than IE5 or 5.5 on a PC. It's close to IE6 in terms of support. It just has some real problems with inheritance and floats.

Faulty logic aside, here's a tip: if you ever use the phrase "guilty conscience" in a debate about personal rights, you're wrong.
There's already an ActiveX Project for Moz.
