Given the IE bugs I stumbled across today I'm not arguing IE couldn't be improved, but quiet a lot of folks actually like it (not sure why myself - familiarity? Perhaps it is all those website that "just work"). I have reached that point in web developer mastery where I know exactly where to go looking if you want "yet another piece of HTML that crashes IE6". But Firefox has some weird issues as well. The height of textareas in firefox is a wonder to behold. There is a wonderfully meandering bug report I read this week in the Bugzilla about rows and columns for textarea, and what is "by design", "by intent", "by the standard", as well as just broke. Although amusingly the one person who mentioned IE doing the "obvious thing" is followed by a comment that makes it clear that the "obvious thing" is in fact because IE was behind on the standards track and should be updated to do the less obvious thing that firefox now does (since they fixed that part after the bug was filed). I'm more tending to the CSS/HTML is "broke by committee", can join my long list of protocols and standards that need replacing.
