  • If you've been annoyed by those   b r o w s e r     w a r s ,   hope may arrive from www.webstandards.org, which recently approved how Internet Explorer 5.5+ and Netscape 6+ handle formatting codes. Parlez-vous HTML, CSS, and DOM? Meanwhile non-standard Netscape 4+ will still deliver essentially the same contents in an occasionally different wrapper. Today this page is solid and proper in IE 5.5 and NS 6.1, and inaccurate and unstable in NS 4.7.
