New competition: Cross-browser MAYHEM!

[TheLunchBox]

Grrr, I didn't have time to finish mine. Stupid job, always getting in the way.

[mPeror]

So , when are we gonna know the winner?

[vgarcia]

Any idea when we can expect a winner to be announced?

Before the weekend is out

[OfficeOfTheLaw]

Dammit... I came here this morning hoping to see some designs that took insanity to the extreme. I started on mine, which was using the dom to completely change the html and was aiming to include every IE bug I knew, but just not enough time to complete it... damn job.

[RetroNetro]

I have seen the entries and let me say some good, crazy stuff has come out of this contest

I was kinda hoping to see other members posting links to their project entries; but there isn't a single one! Is there some rule or netiquette against it?

Unless someone objects, here's a link to my entry. Firefox CSS Support Only

yeah, I was hoping the same thing as well!! Unfortunately no one did, I think that people didn't post their links so that others can't lift their techniques!! But they can post now if they want, since entries aren't accepted anymore.

cool stuff. though I think as the contest description & rules said, it would've been cool if your design displayed horribly(not as the plain default version) in other browsers!! still, good try. you entered only one entry?

I can't wait to see other entries!!

[Young Twig]

Ahhh... I started on one that gave random JS errors and null/undefined alerts. Never got around to finishing it, though.

Can't wait to see more entries.

[Dan]

I kinda misunderstood this contest.. my entry was therefor crappy.

[bjcffnet]

Here's my entry

There's no css used. (Well, no css file used... Just a lot of javascript)

Off Topic:

If you're testing it in IE, you might want to add me to the 'trusted zone.' Doesn't seem to work otherwise. (Don't worry there isn't any activeX or anything)

[metho]

Ya, only one entry funda; studio is quite busy atm. But this was too much fun to miss out on so I knocked this up during lunch. IMO though, you can't get more busted than not working at all. I thought the judges may get a surprise seeing no styling at all...

[Dan]

bjcffnet.. your website is down

[bjcffnet]

It is?

[elliothere]

So is the winner announced today?

[vgarcia]

I'll be announcing the winner this weekend. We're still tallying up votes and I have to chase after the staff to decide, those lazy bums

What a lame contest. I'm sorry for this post, but what is the point of making a website look bad in good browsers such as Opera (or even Safari), when clearly it's just a good a browser as Firefox? Atleast if the point was to look good in standards-compliant browsers, and bad in others..

Which means it's more challenging. Besides , they're giving away a Firefox book , not Safar or opera . The contest is a bit weird compared to previous ones though.

Atleast if the point was to look good in standards-compliant browsers, and bad in others..

That would be incredibley easy.

I think the contest would have been much better if we were to make a page for Firefox, without caring about the rest. So basically, instead of using a 100% different design for IE/Opera/Safari, which is entirely useless in every sense, you use non-IE JS, CSS, and even XUL if you want. I would love to be able to use some of the non-IE CSS stuff, but this contest doesn't really promote that. It actually asks you to sabotage your design in the rest.

Excacly. Anyway, didn't mean to troll or anything.
