My own sites do, yes. But the line I replied to said "always" and "all
browsers" and "all computers". Simply not feasible. No matter how hard
I try, my sites looks different in Firefox from the way they look in
Lynx.
Also, in Opera they look slightly different than in Firefox and IE,
because of the way the font-size scales. In Konqueror on my SuSE box,
they look different because of an entirely different font.
Sometimes I allow for Konqueror to have a minor difference in
horizontal navigation, like the borders on the list items may be 1px
narrower than on Firefox or something.
My Siemens MC60 mobile also displays my sites differently from any
other computer, and Netscape 4.79 would need an entirely separate
mark-up (tables and frames) to accomplish the same look as today's
IE6. I don't see it as my professional task to cater for NN4 though.
I just make the content *accessible* in that browser and in *all
browsers*. That's my idea of professional.
Long story short: I'm just saying there is a difference between
"looking the same across browsers" and "always look the same on all
browsers and all computers".
