FWIW, you can give a page any extension you like as long as the server's set up to parse pages of that type.

Old is Gold, but in software terminology its not.

IE3, this brings me memories, awful memories...

Used it with Windows 3.11 a couple of times, most of the times I was using Netscape since it was way better for the moment.

Years from now they'll probably be blocking unsafe browsers such as IE 7.
