So all those sites that are optimized for IE will break when all those AOL users start using the new version.So you can basically fix it now or fix it later :)To fix the stylesheet problem you just need to change how you call it. I forget exactly how right now, but most any CSS info site will have that information. It is a simple fix and solves the file not found error. I believe Netscape actually does it the proper way. At least what the initial proper way was.As I understand, you can also use @import to get your stylesheet and Netscape 4.x will ignore it as it does not understand that command. So those users will see your pages sans stylesheet. > This is something I look at quite often: > http://www.cen.uiuc.edu/bstats/latest.html Maybe some of you will find > it > useful as well.Each site stats will be different, also keep in mind that many sites do brwoser sniffing and reject browsers like Opera, iCab and so forth.
