1. Comment - Plug-In Raises Firefox Security Doubts

   (Jul 20, 2005 - 9:04 AM)

   "I said it before, I don't care if web designers design in the right or wrong way, I just want to see the page rendering on my screen in the right way without switching all the time between the one or the other browser."
   
   Firefox is different in that it sets out to be rigidly and exclusively standards compliant. Therefore if you are 'Firefox Compliant' you are by definition compliant with all other browsers that obey the standards. You are not writing a site for 10% of the audience, but 100%. I would prefer to have my site viewable by 100% of my customers than a mere 90% (and still falling).
   
   "And Firefox is one of those trends where all people scream about but a 10% on the market is not that much and I doubt if they come any further."
   
   If you ask a shop owner if they would be happy for someone to stand at their shop door and throw out every tenth person who was going to come in, they would be horrified. Bear in mind that it is only the last few customers who make the profit. The rest are covering costs. If 10% of your customers didn't like your product, that's one thing. If 10%, 1 in 10, of your customers can't even *see* you product, that's something else.
