Universal IE6 CSS
- ingenium 17y agoAll the links at the top of the page (ie, link to blog, contact, review, classes) and the text below "for a beautiful web" show up as boxes with numbers in them. Is this some font or other problem on my system (Ubuntu 9.04 + Firefox 3.5 beta 4) or are other people getting it as well? I see them once in a while on other sites, and it's pretty annoying.
- Jakob 17y agoAbstract: You have those options * Design for better browsers, then design alternative solutions to handle IE6 bugs * Write a remedial IE6 stylesheet to address layout issue * Use JavaScript to bootstrap CSS support in IE * Make your site look exactly the same in IE6 as in any other browse * Develop to better browsers and spend no development time or testing for IE * Block IE6 users from seeing your site's styles Or you can just use one style for IE6 for all of your different web sites. (Example: http://forabeautifulweb.com/demo/2009/05/21/forabeautifulweb.html http://forabeautifulweb.com/demo/2009/05/21/forabeautifulweb...) I don’t like it. Using the same style for IE6 on all pages? Come on. I think CSS frameworks are the answer.
- Semiapies 17y agoIronically, the page is ridiculously bugged on a current browser - Chrome 1.0.154.65.
- mr_justin 17y agoLooks great in Safari beta 4.
- jlangenauer 17y agoI'll add a 7th approach: Develop for other browsers, then do the bare minimum needed to make your site usable in IE6. And then explain why you are doing that. This achieves the dual goal of exerting pressure on users still using IE6 to upgrade, while not overly inconveniencing those who don't (or cannot). (As an aside, a major Australian accounting firm - I'm talking Big 4 here - only rolled out their upgrade _today_ from IE6 to IE7 - so IE6 is still out there in the corporate world.)
