As a recent situation with my bank proved, the main reason why
some sites don't work is because people think it's okay to hack
the specs and disregard the RFC completely.

The only reason why other browsers work on the same site is
because browser manufacturers accept to further hack their
product to comply with these dirty hacks, instead of releasing a 
statement that "site Blah is non-compliant".
