IE6 came out in 2001, and at that time was the most standards-compliant and feature full of all the browsers on the market (well, except for IE 5.5 for MacOS).
Why do people keep compairing it to the latest versions of Chrome and Firefox?
- ChrisNorstrom 14y agoIt's not what you release, it's how you maintain what you release. MS is at failt for using monopolistic methods to force a poorly maintained browser. To this day IE is still garbage, it's gotten better but even the latest IE9 has simple rendering issues. It still doesn't have text-shadow support and if you use gradients with rounded corners it destroys the rounded corners and cancels them out. So much for modern :(
