It looks more or less the same except the banner in Firefox reads:<BR/>"It's time for change"<BR/><BR/>and the banner in IE reads:<BR/>"plan for change".<BR/><BR/>This does not appear to be something that changes when you refresh the page. I wonder why they did that?Wrinkled Weaselhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05291551539649118631noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6214838.post-88770945117087350722008-09-26T12:49:00.000+01:002008-09-26T12:49:00.000+01:00http://www.blue-blog.net/page.php?3http://www.blue-blog.net/page.php?3Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6214838.post-63116544477940281902008-09-26T11:55:00.000+01:002008-09-26T11:55:00.000+01:00It does look smart.
