Why is this line about a flaw in Firefox still being peddled? The flaw was never in FF because the browser was only following the specification which you'd know if you RTFM'd. As it happens, the flaw was actually in the specification to begin with, and therefore all modern browsers fell for. IE doesn't because it's so far behind. Do your journos actually understand the difference here, or do they just regurgiate any old garbage they're fed.
