Back in the old days when there were Internet Explorer (IE) and Netscape, everybody knew that it is very difficult to write something that would run perfectly on both. But since it was only two dominent browsers not many pointed the finger at IE. It was just that the two are different, life is challenging what could you say.
Today, when you have Opera and Chrome and Safari and FireFox -- ALL BEHAVING THE SAME -- and IE in his own realm, it is much easier to point the finger.
And here are some who do point the finger:
and there are more, just google for IE sucks or IE pain in the ass. Which it is, for most web developers.
It's nice to see that the other browsers do have a strict implementation according to the W3C standards, resulting with uniform behavior and ease of development. It says good things on the W3C standards being well defined and about the discipline of the coders of the other browsers, as opposed to IE.
Microsoft needs to drop IE altogether, start with a new code base and a new brand name, the current one is ruined.
