It's a Utopia for every web designer to reach 100% compatibility and accessibility with all the different browsers out there unless the site serves plain text only and even then someone will complain that it doesn't fit on the screen of his/her WAP device :) If you use cascading stylesheets, somebody will not be able to view your site. If you use JavaScript, somebody will not be able to view your site. And so on and on... We do aim to get close to the 100% and therefore I have already started moving some functionality from client side scripts (e.g. JavaScript) to server side scripts (e.g. PHP). Furthermore, soon there will be a printer friendly (and I guess text browser friendly) version of every article currently published on the site. Remember, the site is being developed and shaped according to the wishes of the visitors, readers and members of the CodeMages Community. Kind regards, CodeMage
