I just saw my website in Netscape 4 and it looked awful. And so looking around the www for stuff on CSS bugs in find this huge table of known bugs for the major browsers: http://css.nu/pointers/bugs.html . The Netscape 4 list is scary and so I am left wondering is it worth fixing the site (ie. removing a lot of CSS) just so it works on Netscape (I have no idea what it looks like with Netscape 5/6). What browsers do people out there use? [This message has been edited by rowanseymour (edited May 31, 2001).] |

I'm using IE 5.5. I have a hit counter on one of my pages that also tracks what browsers people use. These are the current ratios I'm seeing: Explorer 5.x %71.43 Brian |

I'll take this oppurtunity to warn everyone against trying the IE 6 BETA. Put simply - it has bugs. My link bar has been stuck in an unreachable position off the side of the window for a while now - it refuses to be dragged back. The history is a bit buggy also. |

I use: in windows, ie.5.5, which i concider the *only* good piece of "serious" software MS has ever written. it is a good browser. it works. in linux, mozilla0.8, links, and sometimes; opera, lynx, konqueror. in that order. mozilla is pretty good at setting stuff out, but as it is 0.8 software (0.9 now, but i dont have that yet), it has bugs, and crashes sometimes. hopefully .9 is better, it says so, but i dont yet have it, i'll probably wait for 1.0, or whatever is next. it does most stuff that IE does, but doesn't run vb-script, which is an MS-only language. links is a console-only browser, which is pretty easy to use, although it doesnt support scripting, images, frames, and several other things. it works pretty well and fast tho. opera has some wierd bugs, but i think thats as i've some problems with something, or somthing. lynx is another console-browser, but i dont like it so much. konquerer is OK, but has some image-loading bugs for me. i need to get a new version, i think. i also use W3M, a super-cool console browser, but sadly i cant get it to use the proxy at the mo, i need to read the man-page. Oh, also, i use netscape 4 sometimes, when i get annoyed at moz crashing, or something. not that moz crashes *All* *that* much. MadProf (hehe. long message!) |
