Default Site is broken in many browsers
Has the designer of this site ever looked at the site in any other browsers other than IE?

it's a well known problem, that many browsers can't work perfectly with tables in tables.....

it's nearly impossible to make a site looking good in all browsers if it's a bit complexer in design

It's true - my forums don't work well with Netscape...

Any designer worth his or her salt can make a site work for browsers other than IE.

People are just lazy...I remember days when things called "standards" were taken seriously...and functionality came before flashy looks.

But hey, it's not like a bunch of kids are going to actually put time and effort into their site.

It's none other than PaulJ from vB.com (judging from the site in your sig). I wouldn't classify myself as a kid, but yes, I am lazy. But I do have almost 6,000 members after 1 year online, so I must be doing something right.

99.5% of my visitors are using at least IE5.5+ and, ironic as it may be considering my site and unprofessional as it may sound, I really don't care how it looks in other browsers (although coincidently it usually looks good in Mozilla).

Yet your board's html begins with..

<body bgcolor="#f2f2f4" id="all" letftmargin="0" topmargin="0" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0" link="#000033" vlink="#000033">

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"> <html> <head>


But sticking to standards is a good thing. All my designs that I made in the last 6 months pass for xhtml 1.0 transition and mjaority for strict.

Maybe so, but the 0.5% of people using other browsers do not justify the time required to redesign many of the table layouts and IE-specifc CSS.
