IE7/IE8b1, Firefox 3, Safari 3.1, and Opera 9.50 are my baseline and are basically all that I care about, since they account for over 99% of the browser install base. Having said that, it surprises me that SeaMonkey would have a different behaviour than Firefox. Are they using an obsolete Gecko branch or something? If Gecko actually changed behaviour from 1.8 to 1.9, that would be even more evidence that there is a good reason for the change. -- Ian Hickson U+1047E )\._.,--....,'``. fL http://ln.hixie.ch/ U+263A /, _.. \ _\ ;`._ ,.
