I should have never held that gun your head when you posted that excerpt..hey waitasecond...I never held a gun to your head! Maybe you should have posted an excerpt about IE loss of market share which could be tied to it's non standards compliance? I dunno, just a thought. The security thing nev

You are brilliant. Instead of double checking what I said, you call me names. In full is Tom's previous post in which you will notice if you are able to read, about MS and security. I have put it in bold and italics and added color to the important words, have someone read it to you noticing emp

Re: [CGUYS] IE8/9 Fail Acid Test Badly

Re: [CGUYS] IE8/9 Fail Acid Test Badly

Agree about the topic hijacking. Start a new thread people; it's as easy as changing the subject line. The problem with this ACID test is that it wasn't designed by the people that authored the #1 internet browser. If those people wrote the test, their browser would pass it with flying colors, and

Mike, please wake up; you seem to be catatonic. The subject is Acid Test. It is not browser security. Thank you, Mark Snyder -Original Message- You brought it up. Don't if you don't want it discussed. On Thu, Dec 3, 2009 at 9:13 AM, tjpa wrote: > > What does this have to do with ACID
