What do you have against glossy books? Why should the paper stock it is printed on make a difference? Is saying "glossy" supposed to illicit some sort of prejudice against anything they contain? Those who write how-to books are often quite knowledgeable about what they write, and I would expect them to read the spec. Those who look at other people's solutions would follow a chain of people starting at someone who read the spec. Most examples would show that the browser sniffing would only be used in limited circumstances. Those who are bad at following good examples and choose to design their pages in an idiotic way will end end with idiotically designed pages. So what? They will end up with idiotically designed pages no matter what any of us do.
