From: s.esser at e-matters.de (Stefan Esser) Subject: Interesting side effect of the new IE patch hmmm, > They, fiat and others that used the M$ non-stanard as a basis upon which > to build, deserve exactly what they decided to buty into and not really > research. ... > No sympathy here, I wonder why so many people are just blind of hatred when the topic is Microsoft. It is not a secret that I dislike Microsoft, but I am not blind of hatred like you obviously are. All standard browsers support the http://username:password@... . THIS makes it a standard, no matter what the bloody RFC writes. The majority of people liked adding username:password to the URL, so it was implemented into all browsers and became a standard. That the RFC was not updated is not the fault of Microsoft. If the community had not accepted this as standard it would not be in other browsers (like mozilla), too.
