Working in B2B in the UK, many companies (especially financial services and government) are still heavily entrenched in IE6.
While my default position is to build for modern browsers, these kind of clients will insist on IE6 support, and however much it goes against our best intentions sometimes the customer's insistance is final.
- tintin 15y agoI think it's absolutely fine to tell them you develop using the latest standards and you charge more when you have to develop for expired or non standards.
- wgx 15y agoIndeed, but sadly they'd rather pay me more than fix their browsers!
- tintin 15y agoSometimes our company is developing sites for internal systems. We have to support IE6 only, cannot use any plugins and even cannot use Javascript (it's blocked). We call this a challenge, not a sad thing...
