Zack's website

Just an FYI (oh great, I sound like Kevin), in case you didn't know Mr.
Whittaker, but your website doesn't work 100% on Firefox. I'm seeing text
on top of text in Firefox. It works great in IE7 though. In particular,
your get started page. (You're doing an awesome job by the way.)

I think he has a disclaimer on his site about FF support.

Yeh - Firefox sucks to be honest. IE all the way - I mean, generally it's
still readable in Firefox, just not all the formatting's perfect that's all.

I'll work on it in the near future when I get back from London no doubt.

Sorry Zack, but I have to agree with AMDX2 on this one. (For the most
part.) I've had far less spyware leaked into my computer with Firefox and
also less popups. (Even with IE6 SP2, Firefox wins for popups as far as the
fewest) What I don't like about Firefox is the fact that some pages don't
view correctly and some things don't download correctly.

Yes, IE generally does "clean-up" of badly written HTML e.g. missing tag
closures etc, whereas Firefox does it more "by the book".

Often the REAL problem is too many people code for ONLY IE6 and don't test
for any other browsers or use any standards whatsoever. They are either
unaware or don't care that much of the world abhors IE.
