What browser do you call home?
« on: July 23, 2004, 07:48:12 pm »
What internet browser do you guys use?  I\'m interested because I want to know what browser I should work on optimal compatibility for when building my guild website, etc.  I\'m personally a firefox fan.

Most people use Intenet explorer (including me), so that is propably the one you should focus on, but Mozilla is also a pretty good one, so you should make it compitable for that too. Netscape is another one that is used mostly by mac-users, so you should include that as well.

Opera, of course. And stuff is compatible with everything, you have to change things to make it work in the old-crappy-embbeded IE, not the other way around.

Safari, which I believe uses the KHTML (Konqueror) rendering engine.  I use IE at work, and occasionally a Mozilla variant at home.

I\'m just sayin, some graphics etc render differently.  And there\'s some active script compatibility issuses, esp with SP2 on the way...

Yes, cause M$ doesn\'t care about accepted standards...

I used Konqueror for net occasionally too, until i someday broke the html interpreter somehow. :S

Unless I am checking for compatibility issues or things like that at work then I use IE.

Mozilla here, I was going to completely remove IE from my computer but then I found out Microsoft will nuke my computer from orbit if I do.
