Hi all One of the things that has been talked about for a while for our launch was maybe re-doing a site (or a page of) using standards. This afternoon I was trying to find a new cd rack and, being too lazy to walk out of the house, I went online to sites for whatever shops are close to me. I was browsing away with Moz 1.1 and came across this: http://www.argos.co.uk/static/gecko.html I've no idea if Argos are an international company but they spend millions of pounds on TV advertising in the UK (forcing us to either endure Status Quo as backing music or Richard E Grant losing his acting kudos...). Looking at the site in IE, it's DW stuff (MM_ on the javascript). There's font elements, no css, no doctype and so many graphics that resizing fonts will make negligable difference to a user with poor vision. I've e-mailled them to ask why their site appears to only be visible in IE, but what does anyone think about maybe doing this? Regards Francis
