We are still open for improvement suggestions though. + +We want to support a broad range of browsers. On one side are hand held +devices like WEB-enabled PDAs or mobile phones. They often lack full +grown support for ECMAScript and have small screen sizes. The other +extreme are the desktop browsers like FireFox, Konqueror, Opera and +perhabs IE (if the 'powers that be' make him more CSS compliant). +Here WEB 2.0 featuers can improve the users experience. + +In the future some themeing in live might help to cover this broad +range.
