Re: [WebDNA] WebDNA Showcase?

interpreted = N
texte = The site looks acceptable when I look at it in Safari. I would not consider myself a Safari purist but I do support standards as the default. IE support is added as a non-standard because it has such a large share of the browser market. What is strange to me is that your site seems to be standards compliant and Safari support is a no brainer in that situation. You just grew your market by 2.5% by change a line of code.
