I agree with you 100%, craig. But try telling that to your boss who
knows that 90% of his commercial traffic is from crippled and crippling
IE browsers. Many many (too many) times I have had to cripple my HTML
to make it work with IE. I'm actually so fucked off with the whole web
design process after years of dealing with MS brain damage that I've
pretty well moved on from doing web work. I feel I am leaving a bunch
of under-trained Cold Fusion / Dream Weaver monkeys behind as the door
hits my arse on the way out!
