Scott - I wasn't referring to standards defined in the last 3 days. Expecting a company to adhere to a 3 day old standard the minute it's announced is kinda silly, don't you think? Don't you think NSCP adheres to previous HTML standards better than MSFT? If not, I'd appreciate examples. I've not even read the specification yet - maybe over the holidays. -justinb

>>> Bzzzz. HTML 4.0 was approved in the last few days by W3Org, IE's implementation is much, much, much closer than Netscape's. Layer vs. DIV, CSS support, DOM, all are better supported in IE4 than Nav/Comm 4.x. Since HTML 4.0 was just approved in the last few days, don't you think that you should give NSCP some time to implement it? Jeez. Also, since MSFT is much closer, it could simply signify that MSFT has been more effective at advocating their already-implemented, proprietary feature sets as the standard?
