Re: Trouble is which version of the standards

Back in the day.. it is Microsoft and IE6 that defined the standards.

Not the standard is whatever Google decides that they would be...

This is clearly wrong but that's life and us plebs have to accept it.

An the browser designers just have to lump it. Google + Chrome controls the internet even if many of us would rather wash our mouths out with soap than use Google for anything.

Certainly time for google to be broken up. I'd go for a million tiny pieces.
