The mentioned browsers have more of the referred new stuff in place already, so they are facing an addition that "isn't sexy but isn't that much work either", so I can see it's happening. This is a better position than IE has (which I agree have put themselves in this situation). As I mentioned in my previous mail, I think that large work packages that aren't so sexy have a higher risk for getting a low priority. I guess an example of this is the almost eight years it took for Mozilla to implement CSS's inline-block. (I respect that you have much better insight in this bug than me and there are probably good reasons for the time taken, but the same respect may be given the IE team.) Best regards Mike Wilson
