Last week, we reported that for many users of Apple's Safari Web browser. MacNN reader Rick Lyon let us know that ESPN has seemingly corrected the conflict, and Safari now loads the site properly.

I was among many that wrote to ESPN to fix their website. I am glad that they did the right thing and salute their awesome customer support!
listen. Notice, it only took a few days to have a major web site update it's code? I'm sure quite a few people emailed ESPN, I sent my email. Too bad we can't all do this for every major web site that refuses to support Safari.
There's an interesting article on Netscape's developer site about how ESPN's new site design is totally standards-based. http://devedge.netscape.com/viewsource/2003/espn-interview/01/
This is interesting as Safari is a standards-based browser.
The problem isn't web standard. The problem was with the Flash graphics ESPN had on their front page.
same message at Honda's website ("You need supported browsers -- IE or NS . . .. . . . ) check it out w/ Safari:

Thanks, ESPN, et al...
Because I was REALLY about to be pissed off when it comes to All-Star Game coverage. I like mlb.com and the other sports/baseball sites, but I like ESPN's 'Gamecast' feature.
Now, if all these other designers and business outlets adopt a similar plan, the 'Net experience will be that much better.
