Hmm, can agree with that, but its the public masses that seed standardization... How many people in the 80's actually payed attention to the fact that Beta was and still IS a better standard than VHS video tapes... Even the same for 8-track cassette... Its near DAT qaulity, although the iron oxides used were much cruder than today's norm. Its more about the user's picking something up without having to know anything about it, rather than the developers who use it more intimate ways.... Thus is life in a capitalist world.

I am much more open about this I wish both microsoft and netscape would burn eternaly for their contributions to the "browser wars". Neither one of them made a browser that works worth a damn. We have netscape which doesn't render a bunch of things but gets caching mostly right, we have IE that lies in the REQUEST, violates the HTTP/1.1 spec, caches stuff it has been told not to cache etc. At then end of the day I feel like nuking both of them and a few other browsers also.

In my experience, this a a pure client-side bogosity. To verify: try blowing away all the 'nsform*' and 'formpost*' files in your "C:\windows\temp" directory; if the problem clears up, make an effigy of Mark Andreesen, abuse it creatively, and call me in the morning. :)
Wow... thanks for that. I can use Netscape on my desktop machien again. Completely unbelievable, but such is the world of closed source software
:-(
So, where can I find Mr Andreesen, and why does he particularly need to
die?
He is the founder of Netscape; I'm guessing he has laughed all the way to the bank and beyond by now.
