My opinion is that standards for old browsers should be dumped, and then force people to upgrade to anything newer. I for one do not offer support for anything lower than ie6, and ie6 is paid support. Because it's a pain to create and make sure everything works on IE6 quircks, and i dislike the use of javascript inside css to get ie6 to behave properly. You can do that by simply deleting all your CC for your old sites, how the site renders with the main stylesheet is that's how it renders.
I dont think IE6 will live to see 2010 to be honest, already it has around 20% of the marketshare, and will drop rapidly, and for those who do not upgrade their browsers, then that's their problem, a small sign when you enter the website will check for your browser version, if it's IE6 or below, FF2 or below, safari 2 or below or etc a big message will appear saying "Please upgrade your browser, otherwise this website may not work properly". And as for the designs to css implementation, almost never will a design be pixel perfect transcoded into the HTML, 95% it may be possible, but anything above that line, it's just wasted time (and lot's and lots of time). At least thats my opinion and so far it's profitable. ------------------- Alexandru Dinulescu Web Developer (X)HTML/CSS Specialist Expert Guarantee Certified Developer XHTML: http://www.expertrating.com/transcript.asp?transcriptid=1879053 CSS : http://www.expertrating.com/transcript.asp?transcriptid=1870619 RentACoder Profile: http://www.rentacoder.com/RentACoder/DotNet/SoftwareCoders/ShowBioInfo.aspx?lngAuthorId=6995323 MainWebsite: http://alexd.adore.ro Portofolio: http://alexd.adore.ro/project_page.php ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [cs...@lists.css-discuss.org] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ List policies -- http://css-discuss.org/policies.html Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
