keeping in mind that Lynx also fits within the "all browsers on all operating systems" statement.

Well yes that is a given that it will not look the same on Lynx. Most would assume that when a designer says "look the same" they generally refer to the top browsers and 2 to 3 versions back. It is pretty much a given that you are not going to get it to look the same on IE 5 or FF 2. But you bring up a good point, designers should be specific with their client as to what browsers the design will look right in and the steps taken to deal with the ones that it wont.

  At this point I'm going to assume you didn't actually read the article, because the article mentions this. From the article: Look for: “Your site will look great in modern browsers and degrade gracefully while retaining functionality on older browsers.” Avoid: “All of my sites look perfect in all browsers, back to NSCA Mosaic”

        Yes, if you must know, I have dyslexia some times my brain can miss a sentence in a paragraph. Feel free to down vote the original comment if it is an issue.

        That certainly sucks but it in no way negates the fact that you commented specifically on the part of the article you claim not to have comprehended. I don't have dyslexia and I miss words, sentences and paragraphs too. I have no specific requirement to know details of your medical conditions, just a comment like "sorry, I missed that sentence" would be fine with no further explanation. That said, thanks for the courtesy of explaining.
