Thank gawd.  Finally.

So are we going to see an announcement that people need not worry
about bugging "their browser vendor" because of some problem that IE
had 2 versions ago?  :)

No.  If it's fixed finally in MSIE, then it's not an issue for MSIE users
with recent browsers.

How do you define "recent"?  Do you consider Nav4.0 recent?  If so, then
people who are running "recent" versions of nav are open to some pretty scary
security holes.


If someone is running a browser which has the same bug that MSIE3 had, and it
isn't fixed in the current release, and they can't get the source code in
order to fix it themself, they should direct the complaints to their browser
vendor.

You're really streching it here...
