Story: Firefox 1.0PR: a first look

Well, I have to say Firefox is by far the best web compliant browser out there today. I am a developer and I am tired of having to patch and write work around code just to accomodate the crappy handling of html, dhtml and css in IE. And even Opera has it's issues. And worse yet, that crap that M$ put out for Apple.

Any compliant code will always work correctly in a Mozilla based or Safari/Konquerer browser.
