oh yeah, and the "reply post" thing from ngemu is screwed up too...the smileys go off the page. good job gecko
That's exactly the point I was trying to get across and the precise reason I use the IE engine.

I'm actually finding this humorous. All I said was that people will use whichever browser they prefer and stated my choice, which is IE. It seems that's all it took to send the Gecko zealots into a frenzy.

I mean, seriously...this is a browser we're talking about here. It isn't a life-changing decision.

I tried Gecko and it was nothing special. I experienced the same issues as hushy, which just goes to show that it has rendering flaws as well, only I found that I experienced them more often than when using IE. It just didn't cut it for me. Oh well...get over it. God forbid, I use software coded by Microsoft. If all my hair falls out, my girlfriend leaves me, I go bankrupt, my family dies, and I become sterile all from using IE, then I guess that's my problem.
