All in good natured fun. I'll be punching Sim tonight at CFUG (ASUG, ASCFUG, ass-fug, whatever), but don't let him know that, or he'll try and defend himself. I was more illustrating a CSS technique that I've used to great effect than really campaigning for Firefox. It was just the obvious candidate for an implementation. Oh, I know.

I guess you could write the js to do an animation, but that sound like a lot of work. I know you are an svg kinda guy but that needs plugins too.

How dare you back down and let the monkey loving IE users sway your judgement. I say mod the script so if they view the site in IE it pops up a big flash movie of monkeys throughing poop. Just big enough that it blocks most of the content, but that they can still see around it to read if they scroll just right. Barney you conformist bastard!

Hence no server-side cookie procesing to hide it. However, if you have a browser that supports attribute selectors, you won't get the flash...... Jeez, it never ends. ;)
