- qeorge 17y agoI am a professional web developer. IE6 is one of the many platforms I have to support. Between the different versions of Firefox, Safari, IE, Chrome, and Opera its about 10 browsers that reasonably should be tested for a given site. I guess what I was saying is give developers some credit. We've been working around a lot tougher issues than IE6 for a long time. Its a hurdle, not a brick wall.
- sankara 17y agoRightly said. If we (can) budget out the development cycle a huge chunk goes into ulterior CSS hacks (JS is handled indirectly by jQuery/<x> fmwk) and an unnecessary manual test cycle dedicated to IE6. It's not without a reason Microsoft sent a bouquet to IE6's funeral!
