According to stats, only 0.8% of users are using IE6-7. Is there any logical reason to spend quite a lot of time to adjust your css to work properly for 0.8% of your users? And if you are building a premium product - I don't really think this 0.8% are the one who are going to purchase it...
- city41 13y agoYou should look at your own stats to decide that. IE7 accounts for 4% of our users, so we do make some concessions for them.
- alternize 13y agoaround 2% here... but by far some of the best paying ones (corporates).
- emn13 13y agowow, that's just.... painful. Why the heck would a company stick to IE7? It's not like the compatibility modes of later IE's don't work or something...
- daledavies 13y agoInability to work out how to deploy later versions of IE and push out compatibility view lists using group policy (I'm no windows networking expert but this has to be possible right?)
- alternize 13y agoin this particular case, the company is global and has a fixed load set for their computers/notebooks. the last version was compiled together around 5 years ago. when you have to support multiple thousands employees, having a stable environment is key. upgrading becomes an expensive and slow process. the next load set at that company is currently in testing for the last 9 months (!) and will upgrade to ie9 and office 2010 - both will be around for a few years to come, their extended support periods end in 2020.
