Re: Oddpost
Aw fuck.
I didn't say "IE5W eclusivity is evil" about those guys. When I wrote that I no idea who they were, or even if they were guys. I still know little other that what I've learned from you right here, and what I learned a few minutes earlier from the site's source view.
FWIW, that view doesn't look like "two guys who have mastered DHTML like no one else on the planet." It looks like another big company WebSideStory doing something cool for one browser and not bothering to explain what they're doing to anybody else.
BTW,I didn't even see your pointer on your blog until a few minutes ago when I encountered that post in the #3 position on a Google search for Oddpost. What led me to www.oddpost.com at 1am this morning was an email suggesting I go looik. When I went there, I encountered a nearly pure mystery with damn few clues to help solve it a state that persists even now.
Again, a little disclosure of helpful information would make sense here. When I go to the site with my browser on an OS X Mac using IE5 for that machine (also with Opera and OMNIweb, fwiw), I get told my browser won't work with whatever-this-is, and little more. I'd check with my Linux box, but it's down right now, along with everything else in my office, which is having rugs put in and walls being painted today (still amidst flies and the lingering stench'o'death). Not that it should matter.
And it should be obvious by now that I've had plenty of good things to say about plenty of stuff on plenty of platforms other than Linux and Unix, even though those are the platforms I get paid to cover.
