IE7 still chokes.  According to the IE blog, MS
"want[s] xhtml to
succeed" so they're not supporting it in IE.  What?

(Their reasoning is that they can't seem to write a working
XML parser,
so they won't accept XML at all.  Fair, I suppose, but there
are 1000s
of BSD-licensed XML parsers that they can steal in a day. 
Just use one
to process XHTML down to HTML and then process that HTML
with the
existing engine.  Still going to render poorly, but that's
what everyone
expects from IE anyway.)

That attitude is why Microsoft is becoming less relevant
every day.  In
another 30-50 years we might have some standards that are
actually
implemented properly.

In another 30-50 years, we may have a jrockway that's
actually
implemented properly.
