i think you've seen one too many cereal commercials


the chairs are quite comfortable, and remind me of something that might be at Ikea. I don't know, though. Knowing apple, they were probably custom-designed by Ives and hand-made...
I hate it when web designers do that. At MOST, if they really have the urge to do that, a pop up window, or just a line of text, would come up and tell the person which browser to do, but still let them TRY with the browser they are on. Once I changed the User Agent of Safari the whole page worked fine. Safari displayed it perfectly.

Aggg! Every thing I hate about javascript (and why I mostly have it off in Safari), The first window (the root www.baleri-italia.com one) not only does a restrictive browser check, but also maximizes the window, it's my main browser window I do other things while browsing I don't want your page to fill the screen, thanks. All this page displays is a language selection (you needed full screen to do this, because?) the language selection 'buttons' also require javascript (it's just a link why the javascript). These then open a Popup window, at about 800x600 or less, remind me again why you felt the need to resize my main window to 1280x1024.
I am a professional web designer, and even I HATE these tricks.

Yeah I just love this code... heh:

if (navigator.appName != "Microsoft Internet Explorer") {
check = true;
}
else {
check = false;
}

if (check == true) document.location = "./no_browse.htm";

Of course it works perfectly fine in Safari and Camino.

If anyone wants to send them an e-mail... info@baleri-italia.com
