Subject: RE: IE Browser
<quote>
Unfortunately 90%+ of the world uses IE, so if you use Firefox as your
primary browser, and do all of your development using it, then you'll have
to re-check your code to make sure it works in the one that the rest of the
World uses
</quote>
Interestingly, I don't see this on the stats of our site. Netscape is
kicking butt! Admittedly this is a small site with only a few thousand
visits a month and we have only been tracking stats for a couple of months.
Also, I have no idea how these stats are compiled or how the browser version
is determined, we just use the software provided by our hosting service.
Keeping all this in mind, for the last eight weeks or so since July 20th
that we have been tracking stats, Netscape browsers are reported at nearly a
2:1 ratio over MSIE browsers.
Of course I am not advocating NOT checking all work in IE; one just HAS to
do this of course. I'm just intrigued by the apparently slipping numbers of
IE.
