Well it's not standards compliant and leads to broken web pages by encouraging flawed HTML/Javascript/CSS/DHTML. Firefox on the other hand, is standards compliant and provides the same user interface on multiple platforms.

Which is great if you are a developer...which I'm not, but you are. . I'm a user, so I don't care if its not standard compliant. What I do care about is I can go to just about any website and be guaranteed that IE will work with it.

If you are using windows that's true. But you should know that most developers design for Firefox(according to cthree, that is also the case for s2ki.com). It is the few that design for IE that throw things off. Not that I really have problems with Firefox... Non-standards compliant sites rarelly have meaningful content anyways.

Now if your Blackberry has problems loading/posting to a site... Blame M$ for propagating standards breakage? Or blame Blackberry for being standards compliant?

Why would you design with Firefox in mind when IE owns the market?

If s2ki.com is designed with Firefox in mind, that would mean that it is standard compliant right? So if my Blackberry is also standard compliant, then why can't I do a regular reply? Why must I use the quick reply option?
