Client: Why can't I go across the river in this Firefox car?

Web dresigner. I'm sure you can. Somehow.

Client: Well, I can go quite safely across the river with my IE. You had
better make it so for my Firefox car as well.

Web dresigner. Hang on a tick... Hello newsgroup. How do I make this so?

Newsgroup: You don't.

Web dresigner: But we can go across the river very easily with with our IE.

Newsgroup: Er, your IE vehicle is a boat.
