Oh how I agree……As a web designer, I have to test on multiple browsers to make sure that all elements on the page are displayed properly across multiple browser platforms. I constantly notice that IE can “figure” out the code’s intentions and properly display the image or element correctly. However, on the other hand, FireFox has a tough time parsing the code and translating it correctly on the screen, especially if there are errors in the code. Typical errors that affect the browsers are open tags, and erroneous code. I also recommend validating your code here: http://validator.w3.org/

Silly html stripping… It you should read:

div style=”border: solid 1px black; padding: 30px;”
textarea style=”width: 100%”
(…)

and:

table style=”border: outset 1px”
tr
td
(…)

respectively

IF only IE rendered CSS/XHTML to standards, hey?

As fas as I tried, Firefox 1.0, despite its endorsement of css, is not css-1 compliant. Consider the following: blah It is perfectly valid xhtml and css. According to the w3c specs regarding the dom's box model, you should get a text area within a division that has a 30px padding and a 1px black border. You get precicely that in IE. In Firefox 1.0, on the other hand, the text area is properly positionned, but has the division's width rather than 60px less. Similarly, consider:

blah

IE renders an outset border. Firefox, on the other hand, renders this as a solid border. My $.02 as a Firefox user.

Doesn’t look like it validates to me
