problem with alternatives 2004-07-03
ddoubled
I prefer NetScape (I'm using 7.1) to Opera or Mozilla but, unfortunately, at least a dozen web sites that I visit regularly in whole or in part do not work properly with it (or with Opera or Mozilla - the problem appears to be with the basic Mozilla code).

I can understand and accept the problem when I encounter it on end-user sites - put together, presumably, by non-professionals. But my worst problems occur with financial sites (banks and brokerages) which have plenty of highly-paid Web designers.

In short, I would love to never have to use IE, but in spite of my complaints to the Webmasters of the offending web sites re problems with Javascripts or flash, or even inaccurate error pages, none of the offending sites have been fixed.
