I am developing a website and I just started using google chrome, and I noticed that it was not handling links made with CSS style sheets that had a lot of padding around them very well.
.biglink {
font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: 14px;
color: #ffffff;
background-color: #3D587D;
border-top-style: ridge;
border-right-style: inset;
border-bottom-style: solid;
border-left-style: outset;
white-space: nowrap;
margin: 0px;
padding: 10px;
height: 24px;
border-top-color: #FFFFFF;
border-right-color: #333333;
border-bottom-color: #666666;
border-left-color: #333333;
border-top-width: 4px;
border-right-width: 4px;
border-bottom-width: 2px;
border-left-width: 4px;
}

When I have a link the uses the above class it is totally distorted.

Amused or surprised. Either way if you run a site dedicated to a particular web browser you are going to get most hits from people using that web browser.

I’d say the main reasons for more people trying Chrome is possibly the fact Google is the most popular search engine and they keep posting about it on the Google site.

I’d say that possibly once Chrome hits version 4 or gets a better selection of extensions/plugins then it might surpass Opera.

It’s still in dire need of more options though. I like to be able to turn cookies off except for a white list of domains. That and there are a few rendering hiccups in WebKit that still need to be ironed out.

Carbonise – where did i say i was surprised. I have mentioned that on a site dedicated to Chrome i expect it to be high, and its higher than last month. Just read out the whole thing. I have some other sites as well and i saw a steady increase in those which is mentioned above.

So you are surprised that a site about Chrome gets a lot of hits from people using Chrome? On my own site I show Google Chrome (2.4%) as the fourth most common browser behind Opera (3.1%), Firefox (29.9%) and IE (59%).

Do admit I am impressed that Chrome almost has as many users as Opera does. But Chrome seriously needs to get some features if it intends to compete with the big 2.
