Look I was just relaying some of my experience when trying to figure out why
Netscape Crashes... I don't mind a Browser being picky, but it should catch the
errors and not just crap out every time I attempt to load the page I am working
on.. it's that easy... and when it comes to this, Netscape sucks.. Trust me, I
code for all browsers, but anybody with halfway descent experience knows it
takes awhile to do so, especially when creating the Code dynamically via some
sort of Scripting Language. Now if you would stop defending a Browser and start
trying to help, I'm sure we would all appreciate it. Don't go around accusing
other's of not writing "proper" HTML code if you don't even know them... your
known for giving shitty responses like this - C7, think, then speak...

what do you mean "comment out your DIV tags?". doesn't that defeat the
purpose of having them there in the first place? and why would you hate a
browser for being *picky*. why not write proper HTML and stop complaining
about the browsers! - Cyanide_7
