Something for IE 6.0 users to look at.

I just found it today, I'm sure some here use it but Avant Browser if your an IE 6.0 user like me is definatly something interesting to look into. It basically the samething runs on the IE engine but allows for tabbed browsing and better pop-up ad security... it's not bad. Kinda the cross road between IE 6.0 and pop-up pages which don't happen alot if you are a smart user but they still happen to the best of us and Mozilla/Firefox which a good 1/3 of the sites on the internet still don't support.

Check it out might be interesting.

Wait, 1/3 of the internet doesn't support Firefox? I guess porn is only 1/3 of the internet, along with every other website I've ever been to.

That's because the Zone is ActiveX-driven... right?

That's because the sites HTML is wrong...

Code:
<a href="about.html">
    <td width="100" onMouseOver="this.bgColor='#B7BEC5'" onMouseOut="this.bgColor='#CCCCCC'">
<font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="2" color="#333333">About</font></td>
    </a>


Only the text should be linked. Not the whole cell.

Edit: Side scrollness.

I go to the zone to get my silly little flash games fix.

Opera works fine on any "content driven" site. It's the flashy ones with nothing on them that completely disregard any sort of usability that it has problems with. But then, who wants to go to them, anyway?
