Absolutely ridiculous. All this time and effort wasted in an attempt to support a deprecated web browser client. Statistically NS4 users number between 4% - 6% of our potential users (at the time of writing), as indicated by http://www.upsdell.com/BrowserNews/stat.htm. Yet, for some reason, we've let this (let's be generous) 6% of users occupy such a large percentage of our time. Now I'm no project manager, but even I can see that this just doesn't make sense - the priorities are all wrong. I understand the desire to have the site visible to all, regardless of platform. I also understand the complexities (and wasted resources) involved in creating an NS4 version of the site (I've done enough web-development in my time). So, why don't we do those users (and web-developers everywhere) a favour? Use mod_rewrite (or similar) to detect NS4 and send them to a page that advises them to upgrade to a nice, new, shiny browser (with the relevant links). Tell them quite clearly that we're not forcing them to do so, but explain that the mod_perl website (and a huge percentage of others) just plain sucks under NS4. Then we can stop wasting time and finally get our s/gorgeous/your favourite verb/ website live. Just my personal opinion - vote/flame in the usual way. :-) Jonathan M.
