"Browser independence" means more then just accessibility. It also means
using techniques that work on all browsers. And as we've all seen, getting
HTML form UI widgets to look consistant (let alone "pretty") is a practical
impossibility. This is, incidentally, why the Mozilla Project developed their
own UI toolkit -- so the form appearance actually *could* be correctly
specified in CSS.
You get this with Microsoft's browser too, of course: Everyone should use IE
and Windows, thus making everything appear consistant. Problem solved. ;-)
