Yes... carbonize will also probably jump on this part but, as I've said elsewhere, my stats tell me that in excess of 95% of my visitors use Internet Explorer 4.x - 6.x. I do everything I can to make sure the site is readable in other browsers but eventually I got to the point where I gave in to the law of diminishing returns and posted this at the bottom of each page: "This web site is optimized for Microsoft Internet Explorer. It may not display correctly in other browsers. "

Note that I do NOT say if you don't use MSIE go away - I'm just warning people that I really don't have the time, energy, or interest in finding out any more how it looks in Netscape 3. If you are using a limited popularity browser, you'll still be able to use and navigate the site but I won't promise it won't look funny in spots.
