Something that IE7 will hopefully correctly implement is the W3C's web standards: link.  It is a very difficult problem  for web developers to write code that is supported correctly under every browser but IE, and causes them to have to write workarounds, or terrible hacks for IE to display the page correctly.

That's what I'm hoping, it is a huge pain when I've been coding my website and it's been working fine except for IE.

Microsoft wants a piece of the browser wars as well and wants to try and take back users from FireFox even though they wont.

Why is it whenever I say something about IE, you try to bash me about it?

I assumed that it was for me since you were quoting me. You shouldnt quote one person unless its to that one person.

Well, ya'll know how stupid IE is and I stick up for IE. Why do we need to keep on putting it down? Hasn't it already been discussed? I think so :)

There is no such thing as peace and there never will be. Peace is a delusion believed by the weak. Gandhi said : "An eye of an eye would leave the whole world blind". So be it because only a blind world can experience the peace that it deserves. But there in lay the sick irony. Who will be able to see this peace? The human species is at war. The enemy walks among us nearly invisible. Only those with true discernment can see them. But only one with discernment and vision can show them to others
