Because ultimately, it makes things easier for all developers (esp. me
) if more people used Moz. I can do more with less code while abiding by web standards in Mozilla than I could ever do in IE. So by promoting it, I hopefully encourage other developers to uses and and promote it on there own, until it becomes a dominant browser.
CodingForums, JavascriptCity/Pageresource, SitePointforums, Devshed, I can't overlook these ones too.
Everyone must witness the greatness of the lizard!

Ok...
Well, I would say I know a fair bit about HTML, but I'm new to the others. I've heard of them but what are the differences?

jkd,
What do you do go forum to forum preaching the glory that is MOZ?
j/k jkd, anyway Moz is an excellent browser probably the best out there but till it becomes the dominant browser it doesn't do us much good.. So I will just keep coding XHTML Transitional (most always) or Strict (when possible) till all the browsers ncatch up, something tell me I will be waiting awhile

XHTML 1.1
Internet Explorer doesn't really support it, but as long as I leave out the <?xml?> processing instruction, and serve is as text/html, it knows enough to go into CSS1Compat mode and render it like it would other XHTML.
If it was up to me though, everyone would use Mozilla and then I could properly serve XHTML as application/xhtml+xml complete with processing instructions...

I have successfully done two sites in XHTML Transitional and am working on a third now. Should have it finished by tomorrow complete with error free validation.
I love it when that happens(error free).
Haven't tackled the Strict version yet. Maybe next.

I'm using xhtml 1.0 transitional almost exclusively right now, with a few minor exceptions for NS 4.x compatibility. Hopefully at some point I'll get some time to try strict on a personal site.

Since I have started using Dreamweaver MX I have been using xhtml 1.0 transitional, so that's my last two sites.

I'm still using HTML 4.01 Transitional. Not yet made the move to XHTML... although, my next site will be.

Also, I coded a client site (not up yet, I'll link it when it is) to HTML 4.01 Transitional. Why? Her audience is primarily made up of, no kidding, N4.x users. *sigh*

My blog is XHTML 1.0 Strict -- synapticimpulse.com
My practice site is XHTML 1.0 Strict -- http://secrets.synapticimpulse.com
My business site, when it's done, will be XHTML 1.0 Strict with a table layout (the other two are CSS layouts).
The blog and the practice site have links for checking the validation.
