Default Browser survey



I have posted a quick survey at
<http://cfaj.freeshell.org/testing/width.shtml>.

There's only one question: select the widest line that fits
in your normal browser window.

Your assistance is appreciated.

Nice idea ... a one man campaign to banish the horizontal scroll?

Do let ut have the 'final' results,

cheers.

Gee, they all fit in Lynx, and you could keep on until you reached
70-something digit numbers.

But if you are trying to get a "reading" for the general populous,
then this group is hardly a good sample.

Oh ye of such little faith. Maybe the survey will prove your point
that there is no "standard size" and that the browser window size is
so random that it is meaningless to try to code for it.

> There is no "normal" browser window. Deal with it.


And if you participate in the survey I believe you may help to prove
that once and for all. Or are you afraid to participate because the
results might show there are some "normal" sizes and you might be
wrong?

Ditto. Hey, maybe it's an omen. Like we should go into business together:
Waaijenberg and Neredbojias Widgets, Inc. Kinda catchy.

This is the part where I'm supposed to let you push my buttons, and go
take your survey to show I'm not afraid of the results, right?

Sorry bub, I'm not that stupid.
