IE6 is certainly nowhere near as capable as modern browser but if you don't need fancy HTML and whamodyne JS then maybe it's not such a handicap after all?
- Kequc 13y agoIt barely even supports CSS. IE6 was released more than 12 years ago and it was behind even then! I'm amazed people are still able to screw with their code enough to make anything work on it.
- kamjam 13y agoI agree with you. If you build your site with Progressive Enhancement then there really should be very little you need to do. We never support IE6, but generally will support IE8 and occasionally depending on the client need to support IE7 too. Sometimes the css is screwed up with IE6 (if we even bother to test it) and it's just a case of a small tweek to a style but we wont go out of our way to fix it (or make any thorough testing)
