I was told that IE allows all kinds of sloppyness from the 
web programmer, like unbalenced tags, backslashes and more 
stuff like that. On top of that they added unique html 
features. All of that is of course not following the 
standard. And of course, a web page developed for IE won't 
run well on the other browsers that follow the standard. 
And of course that's what M$ wants. Bleh. :(
