[thelist] Stop the Hate - IE6 isn't so bad!

[Nan Harbison]

Jon,

The arrival of this email in the list email is so ironic, as for two days I
have been wrestling with my nested divs NOT wrapping text in IE6 where it
looks wonderful in all other browsers! Also, I have a list of questions with
anchor tags that jump down the page (per the request of the client) and the
first question is indented. WHY????? I can't find the reason that this
should happen. 

I lean towards hating IE, or I guess, Micro$oft, for making us handle such a
shoddy product.
I will use your css reset in the future and try to conquer my hatred. We do
have to live with IE6 for a while longer.

:-)
Thanks for your solution,
Nan

Morning, list!

I have just completed my very first blog post, and the first thing I chose
is half-way a rant!  I'm just getting somewhat fed-up with all of the
designers saying we should simply stop coding for IE6, when IE6 isn't really
that hard to code for.

http://www.phazm.com/notes/productivity/stop-the-hate-ie6-isnt-so-bad/

I lay out a few tips to speed up the production of IE6 compatible pages, if
anyone is interested.

 

I want to thank thelist for increasing my own knowledge so I could write the
article, you all rock J

 

And don't forget to digg it if ya like it!

 

-          Jon
