    Your questions about Internet Explorer

    If you could talk to Internet Explorer developers,what would be your questions?



    Mine would be "Why did you make IE7 look like crap??"

    IE6 is much better looking

    "Why can't you make it so it's not intimately tied to the OS, so web developers could install several versions for testing?"

    Why cant you and other browser vendors agree to use the same set of rendering standards, that way one piece of code can render the same in all browsers.

    While I would like for the Webkit-based Google Chrome to do well (as WebKit is the most complete HTML/XHTML/CSS parser out there), IE is here to stay and no amount of decoupling from the underlying OS will change that.

    My question: When will you have complete support for CSS1?

    people have a poor memory, i am sure if microsoft had not been here, most of them would have been technology dumb. Please do put a point stating that, there would have been some one else.

    I use IE 8 beta 2 and its pretty good compared to FF 3. FF 2 was really superb.

    Try viewing our XTML compliant site in IE8 beta 2. It breaks randomly during refreshes (the main menu screws up completely). No other browser exhibits this bug. I would hold off on saying IE8 is better than anything

    You forget that Mosaic was out long before IE was even dreamt of lol

    Why are you guys copying other browsers , please make something unique like when you first made i explorer. Firefox is unique and much fast that other browser,,, am still researching on chrome.

    that's actually a silly question, since IE8 is still beta software.

    My question would be.
    Why have you not yet realised when is a good time to give up and accept that FireFox, Chrome, Safari. Are better.

    Why did you decide to put some toolbar buttons in one place and others in a different place?
