it could be faster and i've read a few articles that show how. Others have done similar testing too I'll be pleased to see java implemented but I still love perl and a bit of gawk. see lots of here language benchmarks - I really like this site.
"If IE does not implement them, they will be simply ignored." I agree to some extent but it doesn't stop people supporting mozilla now. We may end up coding to versions of everything one for IE or one for Mozilla like in the days when netscape 4 and IE4 were popular. I for one would rather have a site work in the cross platform mozilla. (mac/windows/linux) than only in IE which I guess will remain windows only. As linux takes more of the desktop share developers will have to support it. I don't use linux desktop much but I can't tell my customers to switch OS. i can give them Mozilla on a CD to install though.
