Re: interview with Eric Meyer (CSS guru, Netscape)

It should be noted that, shortly after finishing this interview, Eric Meyers
died of a heart attack when he accidentally saw the HTML markup on DMXZone's
website.



May he rest in peace.

given the topicality of today's news that AOL have abandoned Netscape and
cut Mozilla loose http://www.dmxzone.com/go?5303, I thought I'd let
everyone
know that we've got an interview today with Eric Meyer on DMXzone

Huh? Was that supposed to be a joke? If so, not funny at all. Quite the
contrary and pretty tasteless.

I recently visited a Real Estate agent who prepared an offer for me. She
used a browser-based system to input changes to a boilerplate offer
document. The browser she used was NN4.7. I asked her why she used it.
She said that it was what the company required.

Of course this is nonsense, but it's also how a large percentage of browser
users think.

Like wibble, when my clients pay me to build a website for them, I take
their money and do it. I don't evangelize with their money....

This page at the "new" ESPN.com looks better to me in Netscape 4, then the
actual new site design intended for modern browsers.

http://espn.go.com/browserupgrade.html

I have no idea what this means except it may bode well for Fox sports :-)

If you take an hour and browse some high-profile sites with Nav4 it is a
sobering experience with no rhyme or reason. I'm not sure what the answer
is.
