I’ve read over the Yahoo! “Graded Browser Support” section a few times and I simply don’t understand how IE gets an A grade. “A-grade support is the highest support level. By taking full advantage of the powerful capabilities of modern web standards, the A-grade experience provides advanced functionality and visual fidelity.” IE doesn’t comply with Modern Web Standards, they don’t even provide support for transparent PNG’s so why they’re listed as they are confuses me. Maybe I’m missing something, but I do appreciate the info, thanks. I’m simply confused.
