what I do is set out to code to standards, then adjust for where
browsers don't implement them the way I expected.

and if I'm out in the rain and don't have any choice, I'm gonna curse
the rain. if I have to spend time tweaking my code for any browser (not
just IE) which blatantly disregards logical standards for how things
should work, I'm gonna curse the browser. I'll do the work, but I don't
see why I have to be happy about it.
