Sound gÕÕd, I alâ€ays feel <span class=”MSNORML
MSNORML? That’s rather hard to picture.
MSABNORMAL?
Actually, I find MSNORMAL harder to picture.
Haven’t spent much time with Firefox ”This page don’t work!” bugs, have you? I avoid them, when I have time to triage, but I still look at some, and most of the time I view source, see either
class="MSNORMAL"orclass="MsoNormal", and suddenly find that I have something else urgent to do. I can picture it just fine. Some nights, I wake up screaming, and it’s flashing in foot-high orange letters against the dark bedroom ceiling.”I can picture it just fine.

Oh no. I’ll have to look next time. Maybe they really are orange with red borders, and yellow in the center. What are you doing to my formerly spotless mind?
Exits stage left, screaming
Heh. I’ve gotten so used to just ignoring what other browsers might do or not do with a particular element from HTML 4 (24 April 1998), I didn’t really think about whether or not an ability to see an effect from a
<q>element would make any difference.I wonder what other ways there are to say different things to IE and EOMB, just in markup.
Having to deal with people saying ”mind your <p>s with <q>s” is probably why it never went into wide use. Meanwhile, you’ll have to provide a definition of ”different things.” In the current context, it could be translated as ”damn never everything.”
(Fox at chicken coop! Fox at chicken coop!
(Funky Chicken Lady vote for throwing IE to fox.)
Well, at least at the time I was thinking of things just like using
<q>to change the meaning for people using EOMB. I think that narrows it down to pretty much<q>and<abbr>(using an abbreviation that at first glance probably means one thing, but according to thetitleattribute actually means another), which is a pretty thin palette.
