If they have holes in the top, this is often from people drilling them. This typically happened because they were kept outside (so water from rain wouldn't collect in the seat). It's not the way they are supposed to be.


Good Questions: Can I Replace These Chair Feet?
7/19/07 6:20 AM

I had to replace feet on chairs just like this. I was able to buy a set on eBay. The remnant broken feet were a real pain to pull out, though (mine weren't missing, but broken). I don't know if there's a trick to it, or if it just required pliers and a lot of muscle power (my method). As for putting in the new ones, that also was a matter of applying appropriate pressure. The feet seem to be held in by a small metal bar that's bent as it's inserted: low-tech and effective.

Browser stats depend on your market. It's not uncommon to see IE down in the ~75% range, with the remainder distributed between Firefox and Safari, depending who you're communicating with. That 90% is probably accurate for business email marketing, but is not what I'm seeing in higher education or, for that matter, among peers in the design community, where stats are skewed away from IE (witness the response from readers on this board for a perfect example). Anyway, off topic, but the last comment was too simplistic; the question of standards-based design and browser stats is a lot more complicated than "IE=90%."
