Every single guide to web site development I've ever seen warns
against browser-specific coding. Which tells me they had an amateur
do it to save money. The web site practically telegraphs 'amateur
hour' at login. The ASME has been doing that sort of thing for years,
and it's contributed heavily to most of their resounding on-line flops.
