I work at the County and they dictate IE7 is the standard. The Doc Management system we sell and support works with IE very well and other browsers inconsistently. Joy! I want to know if Chrome has the important add-ons in FF that I want. Firebug and MiniMap just to list a few. Chrome is fast at a few things and quirky with others. It is probably CSS sheets that don't cover Chrome as of yet but this is purely a WAG at this time. I don't test in Safari as of yet but should download the Win version just to see if our stuff works with it. -- Stephen Russell Sr. Production Systems Programmer CIMSgts 901.246-0159 cell _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[email protected] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
