  • This is because IE is made to handle the code incorrectly to begin with and doesn't conform even remotely properly to the standards. I use IE and Firefox so I can't be called really biased in this.
  • No. It means IE has a better parser than other browsers out there. There are no standards for handling completely garbage input. I have a feeling you don't know what you're talking about....
  • Actually, it doesn't really mean that IE is a better parser. As you said, there aren't really any standards for garbage input. It just means that IE is a more liberal parser. You would argue that is a good thing. Others will argue it is a bad thing.

    I don't think there is any doubt that you have a better chance of displaying a garbage page if you use IE... of course it is also true that you are more likely to create a garbage page if you code specifically for IE, as you won't realize you've erred.
  • you might want to look at the bottom of this post and notice that he indeed did make IE crash as well. He replys to his own post. Just because one person couldn't find a way to crash it, doesn't mean it can't crash. Later.
