The current e.org is completely fubar with respect to standards. It doesn't even contain a doctype. I won't go any further on how much of a pile it is and why being so is causing it to render so poorly in IE. Btw, why are we using a table with like 30 cells to render a download button?? Just make an image and put the text on top, problem solved... The dev site seems better (it at least has a doctype and validated minus 1 simple error), but it's using an HTML doctype. Wake up people, it's 2009, HTML is DEAD! XHTML has been and will continue to be around for the foreseeable future. Can't wait until HTML pages just fail to load in all browsers, good riddance. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ enlightenment-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/enlightenment-devel
