IE6 support

[2009-06-20]

It was about time to add some IE6 support. Visitors still surfing with the 8 year old browser IE6 are redirected to a nice surprise party page. This is how this site looks like in IE6 and IE5.5.

I don't like IE6 because it so standards uncompliant and buggy. Ie6 is retarding the future of the internet. As a wedevelopper it costs a lot of time and effort to work around those IE6 issues. It's about time to upgrade to Firefox or another browser. ;-)

I'm very lucky though, with this months stats. It turns out that quite a lot of visitors use Linux, and that Firefox beats IE. Check it out:

Windows        65   %
Linux          13.1 %
Macintosh       8.5 %
linuxubuntu     0.8 %
linuxfedora     0.3 %
linuxdebian     0.3 %
linuxsuse       0.2 %


Firefox        45.3 %
MS IE          35.3 %
Safari          6.2 %
Mozilla         5.1 %
LibWWW          1.1 %
Opera           1   %
Netscape        0.8 %

That said, my site is still best viewed in Firefox with the Vimperator plugin.
