Actually, what kills me is the way web design is being sold in Mauritius. The companies are not aiming towards perfection, they are just selling a website for the sake of making money. <strong>All in all, the web companies in Mauritius are just like the hawkers selling anything on the streets in Mauritius.</strong> This is giving the business a bad name and none of them seems to be wanting to make the move towards standards. Still in their conservative mind frames I think. For them "evolution is risky" and none will be able to withstand the further development of browsers and norms such as CSS 3, IE8 with its CSS table layout tag support, HTML 5. :grin: Guess we could put it like that Shah.

How many still use the center tag when they are coding XHTML (STRICT!)? Many. How many don't validate their codes? Many. What I mean is - they should be kicked in the nuts! And the worst part is - W3C will cut them some slack with HTML 5. Oh, but most developers don’t care as long as the pages are rendered correctly.
