OK, then people with broken browsers or webmasters noticing such bugs in W3C compliant pages should be filing bug reports with the vendors. The more reports, the more likely the vendor is going to get off thier ass and fix thier broken software. At this point, if you can't render XHTML 1.1, its broken.

At this point, HTML 4 has been deprecated in favor of XHTML 1.x, and has been for three years. If you can't be bothered to update your browser once in three years, why should everybody else bend over backwards to use obsolete standards? -- .''`.
