* StarTux (matthew@psychohorse.com) [010608 10:47]: ->Ben and others, -> ->I am getting some response on my site www.penguinfriendly.org you are ->correct about a lot of web designers, also remember some do not have time ->to check every browser, so they stick with the main one and throw in ->Netscape just because... -> Yes..it's true they don't have time to check out every browser, but my point is that why should they have to? They should just design it to a spec such as W3C or however they please and if the site doesn't work for the person viewing it with thing such as Konq..then it doesn't work, but if it does..GREAT. They should not query the browser for version and the deny what they don't know. I am rather harsh in my feelings about this. I think that they only browsers that should be supported (because for most part these all support most of the same things) are Mozilla 5.0 (including Netscape 6), IE 5.0 and up, Opera 5.0 and Konqueror. For the most part they all support pretty much the same stuff..not all..but mostly. I don't think that these crappy OLD 4.X browsers should even be supported..because if we keep doing it. There is no incentive for people to update their versions...so the web developers will still have to somewhat support them. This leaves 4 real browsers to support..if they can't do this. They should NOT develop websites...they should know about modern browsers.
