If you don't care about old IE visitors and hate their browser, this sounds like a good way to convince them that their browser is terrible.
Normally I wouldn't feel this way, but recently had to spend days adding CSS hacks and making sure design works on IE 7, and my hate was reborn again.
- pavel_lishin 13y agoIf their browser only crashes on your page, they're not going to conclude that their browser is the problem - they're going to conclude that your page is the problem.
- eli 13y agoThat sounds kinda malicious and not at all like a good idea. If you don't want to support old IE, then don't support it. If you have to support it because enough of your customers still use it, then why would you want their browser to crash?
- blktiger 13y agoIt's a terrible idea, although if every website started including stuff like this then users might complain enough for IT shops to relax their stupid restrictions and allow them to use a more modern browser. :P
- eli 13y agoI'm confident that most of the people using e.g. IE7 are already quite aware that their browser sucks. I think their life is hard enough already without people intentionally messing with them.
