Nope, but in my experience, for the last few years the latest available
version of Opera tends to have generally been the closest.

Whenever I try to design a page I ALWAYS use DIV's:
<div id="canvas">
<div id="content">
<div id="content-int">
</div>
</div>
<div id="sub-content">
<div id="sub-content-int">
</div>
</div>
</div>

CANVAS is the container; "*-int" is to provide a margin between
sub/content DIV's
It works out pretty good, esp. with the
margin: 0 0 -200000px 0;
padding: 0 0 200000px 0;
overflow: hidden;
thing.

You saying it is not for people at large on the internet or it is
for an audience that you know have broadband?

I just looked at the site and while I agree with you in general about using
sidebars, I think there is a little room for improvement on your site. In
particular, without enlarging the font, there is very little on the screen
that I can read. The content might be great, but I'm not likely to stick
around long enough to find out.

Thank you for your input, I greatly appreciate it.
For those who decided to go off topic, it annoys alot of people who
wish to get the same answer.

[offtopic]
Just a quick question... Is there anyway I can get Google Groups to
insert a signature for me?
If not, then all that I really have to do is have the "-- " then my
sig? Thanks!

You can't. You could keep a document open with your sig in it, and just
cut and paste it into your reply.

Also, you might these helpful:
