I have yet to see any errors with that here. Plenty of IE rendering errors when it comes to improper PNG support, but nothing like that with Firefox - your page, for example, displays perfectly in both browsers. Really, the only image-based "error" I've come across is fast GIFs, but that's only because Firefox says that "10ms = 10ms" whereas IE decides that "anything < 100ms = 100ms".

2. First, if there's table breakage over posting an oversized image, that's a FF issue; IE handles it fine.
But if the image is physically larger than the specified table length, of course it breaks the table width (this is on both FF/IE)... unless you have a magic version of IE

Second, the address bar appears to only adjust to stuff to the right of it on startup, and even then I have no real control.
Again, it automatically adjusts - on both sides, as seen here:

Third, IIRC, that is most standards non-conformant use of CSS (the indexing thing).
The CSS Validator at w3.org gives me no problems...

3. That's your opinion. I'm a perfectionist; everything must look pretty.
Indeed it is my opinion

I'm guessing that the "margin" you're getting is an IE rendering bug..

That's now Maxthon right?

Wetwired, if you haven't, try Maxthon. It is supposed to be the best out there at the moment. It's a joint effort from IE6 and MySoft Technology. It's been likened to IE6 supercharged. All the reviews are extremely good. Download it and try it:

http://zdnet.com.com/Maxthon-formerl....html?tag=list

Its freeware. Works on all Windows OS. And has so many features etc. that its said you can spend a whole year on it, yet still be finding new things every day.

I don't know about printing things etc. but try it and see.

Indeed, IE has issues with PNGs, but FF has issues with everything when the system is using 8-bit color.

Expanding the page is not a broken table. A broken table is a condition in which the elements of other cells in a page are rendered incorrectly due to an unexpected size in another cell. IE renders all cells in all tables correctly regardless of the size of any image posted.

How can a static image be proof of adjustment?

I was talking about a Windows GUI element that any similar program is expected to have, but FF is strangely without.

I've never had any problems with firefox.

1) FireFox's speed alone is much nicer then IE.
2) FireFox is my default broswer, and i've never had any problems with opening the browser off my desktop and into the homepage (google) Opens in a blink of an eye for me.
3) Any heavly graphic site, like zelaron loads 10x faster then IE does.
4) I can adjust my toolbar with my favs ect... Not understandiing why you can't i'm using FF 1.0 PR.
5) Firefox has never crashed on me once, never. I've been using it for quite some time now
6) No spyware, no popups. I never get as many pop ups as IE gives me. Though a few do sneak in, but i can't blame FF for that, as its not easy keeping up with all the methods of popups. As with IE. If i open about:blank i get a fucking popup. When i vist some unnames FXP sites in IE, i go threw hell. In FF never...
7) Opera Sux, (advertisments WFT??? i will not pay for a broswer as you do with opera to get rid of the banners)
8) FF's searcg funtion is much nicer, and the ability to Highlight words is a nice feature i use often when coding.
9) Tab browsing is just great, i'm always tab browsing, and you can use CRTL+TAB to go between sites and have 50 of them open in just ONE window.
10) The ablily to change the font size of websites is nice also. Some sites use 8px in there CSS and in IE you will see it as 8px. As in FF you can change that for people with poor vision.
11) Its not owned by Microshaft

You say your a perfectionist and everything has to be perfect. Well if coders code in true XHTML Transional then they shouldn't expericance any problems with tables or cells going out of align. Just use http://validator.w3.org/ They found 135 errors alone just for zelarons front page. Not trying to flame your coding skills or anything, as you have always helped me when i was in need of help. And are a great experiance coder, sometimes wonder why you don't write your own software and sell it. Anyways, just wanted to add my $0.02 in as im a FF user.
