Browser bake-off

If there is to be a contest between browser versions, I am afraid I have to stick with Internet Explorer instead of Mozilla. Why? Well, for one thing, in my MT maintenance site, my formatting buttons are nowhere to be found in Mozilla. Even though I often forget to use them and just hand-code anyway, I like my formatting buttons to be there if I want them. Maybe this bug will be worked out in the next version of MT, but I'm not holding my breath.

Oh yeah: and for some reason, this entry was saved when I entered it using Mozilla, but it would not appear on the blog. I had to re-save it using IE. Weird.

My own solution, by the way, is to open an IE window to blog in blogger in, and use Mozilla for everything else. On my steam-pumped P1 machine, which staggers on at 133 mhz, sometimes this causes problems, but since win98 crashes when I breath hard, anyway, I don't concern myself with this, as I merely breath hard and fantasize about the upgrades I will yet possess, I tell you!

Er, anyway, it's not necessarily a choice between M or IE.
