Blizzard unfortunately fell for this poorly written troll, and countered each point accurately. Unfortunately, he inadvertently legitimised the following attack:
Mozilla also claims that its browser is the one that is most web standard compliant. [...] However, as a person who runs this website, I can with more than enough confidence conclude that [...] Mozilla has a lot less web standard features. For example, if you go to the my site with Mozilla, you will be redirected to a non-Internet Explorer page because Mozilla cannot handle any of the standards that it should.
In the interests of accuracy, I just want to point out that the site in question redirects users to
a different page because... Mozilla doesn't support Microsoft's DOM
extensions! Specifically, document.all! Yes, I can see
how Mozilla cannot handle any of the standards that it should
.
Andras, here's a hint: If you make your site standards compliant,
by simply changing document.all["id"] to
document.getElementById("id") and making sure
your CSS is actually per spec and not simply designed to work well
with IE, then you won't look quite so silly claiming that Mozilla
has a lot less web standard features
, and I won't look quite so
silly responding to obvious trolls.
