open standards, anyone?
CNET published an article comparing IE7 with MF2. MF2 won hands down of course. Read it here.
I’ve never been a fan of IE; previously I used Netscape, then Opera, and now I faithfully use Firefox. I use IE only when I absolutely HAVE to, for example in circumstances such as this:
This post was brought to you by using GIMP, Wordpress and Firefox on a Suse Linux OS.

Anybody who tries to make webpages play nice in at least three browsers will know how painful it is. IE, to an extent, supports sloppy page design because of its lax adherence to web standards and additional for-IE DOM elements.
Says it all, I guess
Suse Linux! Ptttth! They’re in league with the MS devil!!!! lol
Actually, I better be careful what I say. MS is flying me to Sydney in two months! lol
You should write back to MSC Malaysia Wizard and say:
Currently you are not using a particle you need.
It would be interesting to know which browser actually the 3 judges using daily. I think this will somehow cause bias.
Anyway, Firefox is still my first choice!
but FF is really ABOVE IE 6.0….
Love Firefox the most!
Hmm… I have always used IE. Can’t really tell the difference, I guess.
IE pretty much sucks, but it’s the only one that works fairly well on my antiquated Apple computer.
From your screenshot I’m assuming you’re visiting the MDeC web site. Additionally, I think that you’re using Konqueror (the default KDE browser).
I went to the web site using Firefox (on Windows though – at work
), and the page renders just fine, albeit damn slowly.
And before you guys get me wrong… yeah IE does suck! IE7 is much better than IE6, but the PNG support is still half assed.
GS: yeah it’s tough work. still it’s got to be done lor
Dabs: bleh
Bryan: yeah cnet reviews a bit off sometimes. but depends lah
KY: hahah
Nonnie: agreed
anttyk: how’s ie7 working out?
mad: oO apple guy
Azmeen: msc and mdec sites work fine on FF, it’s this thing i’m doing now that requires only ie browsers. i used konquerer for the snap shot because it’s the most similar thing to ie on suse
Microshaft blows!
Hi Suanie,
I’m a web developer my self and having required to test all my application on IE is a pain in the arse
CSS and Div breaks so bad on IE6. Lols, I guess the only browser that passed ACID 2 test is Safari, Opera and Konquerer 
Firefox 3 will pass ACID 2 though 
ps. you should try debian or ubuntu or kubuntu, apt-get rox!
