Re^12: INS, DEL, Q tags now allowed in posts

Oh ok. That's cool then. Now since you already confused "must because the spec says so" with "must because it doesn't work that way", which must do you mean here? I'm just being picky here because this HTML stuff (user contributed HTML on a site that doesn't make meaningful markup meaningful) is way, way outside the places where I expect specifications to have any real hold.

Added: Say, the only browsers I use are Mozilla 1.7, Netscape 7.0, and IE 6 (after XP SP2). Do you happen to know when each is likely to get support for Q? Or which browsers support this?

I hope that clarifies the respective purposes. Of the browsers you mention, all except IE support Q (albeit, as discussed in another subthread, not necessarily optimally).

Firefox and Konqueror do, so I would assume all other Mozilla-likes and Safari also do. IE 6 doesn't, and probably won't until IE 7 comes out with Longhorn (if ever).
