I think you've missed my point. Most all need for sniffing is due to the uninformed web authors who aren't aware of "other browsers." In nearly all cases, if these authors would write error-free pages/sites, there would be no need for sniffing at all. http://validator.w3.org/ http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/ It has nothing to do with "feature introduced after MOSAIC".
