IE6

Thu Jun 12th 17:06:51 2008

When are we going to see the end of this disease of a browser? IE7 has been around for a couple of years now, and I've even started playing with the IE8 BETAs. Yet, as much as I'd like to disregard the pos that is IE6, I can't. It still represents a large enough market share that I can't ignore it. I'm hoping that within a year or so, I'll be able to start ignoring it, but for now, it's still a bane for me. I know for a fact the guy who I'll be presenting some of my latest work to uses IE6, so for that reason alone it has to look good for that 'browser'. It's just such a pita. I get so tempted to put some browser detection code in and have an obnoxious upgrade message appear to anyone with IE 6 or below. But, alas, professionalism prevails.

In related news, Opera 9.5 was released today (woo) and FF3 is officially here in the next couple of days. Excellent.

Oh yeah, I also turned 22 on Monday.
