Infoworld talks with Avie Tevanian and Jon Rubinstein: "many of the things that we do, even if we don't do them explicitly for the enterprise, are very applicable to enterprise." 2:28:33 PM

Poor Netscape/Mozilla Support in .NET. This article from Slashdot describes some problems that folks have encountered getting ASP.NET controls to render correctly on browsers other than Internet Explorer. Here are some interesting comments: Anonymous Coward: "the built in ASP.NET controls work well if you use ie 6 on XP as a client, and degrade from there." DNAGuy: "it's no harder to build cross-browser apps in Visual Studio.Net than it is in any other IDE." MobyDisk: "the first thing they said about the ASP.NET is that you need to go out and get another set of controls." I'd like to learn more about this. Is it unreasonable to expect ASP.NET controls to render perfectly on every browser? Are there things you can do to force the controls to render reliably? Has anyone had experience that refutes these claims? 8:41:07 AM
