Web Browser Compatability

Name: Anonymous 2006-03-15 17:02

When doing a website, do you think it's right to be code for only certain browser (ie the most used browsers like Firefox & IE (latest ver)) and to just say to other users of browsers like Safari, IE 5 , "sorry you cant use this site"

Obvious troll.

No, it's not ok.

It's ok to read the User-Agent and if he's using MSIE, send a Location: www.getfirefox.com . Then you only have to bother about making a website that's standards compilant, and all of your users will support it.

Cutting off 97% of the web from visiting your site is a great idea!

We have web standards so that we don't need to code for a specific browser. It's the browser's responsibility to meet standards, not the web designer to implement hacks to work around half a dozen mutually broken browsers.

If you had to pick, choose opera when testing your webpages. it's the most compliant browser out there. Firefox actually sucks and IE owns firefox in so many ways.

I'd better leave now because I hear some linux fags chanting "GEE PEE EL! GEE PEE EL!" in the background.

If you're talking about following standards, and then restrict users to only Fire-"I can't pass ACID2"-fox and MSIE, you're shooting yourself in the foot.

ACID2?  Firefox passed that a long time ago.  ACID3, thus far, has yet to be passed perfectly by Firefox.

I know.  Since Thread Necromancy was already cast, I thought I'd bring up ACID3 rather than waste a new thread.

Okay... but you didn't state anything aside from common knowledge. I don't get it. Are you the guy that usually makes new threads stating the painfully obvious or something?

The first nightly build of Firefox that passed Acid2 happened twenty days after the post you're replying to. For official releases, it would take until June 2008, which I wouldn't call ``a long time ago''. Particularly since that was over three years after the release of Acid2.

I haven't made a new thread on /prog/ in months.  On the same hand, I don't initiate Thread Necromancy (or meme spam) either.
Just thought I'd bring up ACID3 and see if anyone really had something to contribute since an otherwise useless thread would waste space on the front page for a while anyway ...

ACID3? Is bullshit. It tests things like DOM2 and CSS3 that aren't even completed standards yet, so if you develop a website that uses these features, you fail.

Name: Anonymous 2010-05-14 9:53

implying testing before having a complete standard (which often takes on the order of 20 years) is redundant

In my experience, all people have some social outlet where they vent. it could be a forum, bunch of chats or some newsgroup, but they stay there for years. Its like a mental home and its not "abnormal".

And I don't block off anyone or redirect them to a browser download page, that's just being a dick.
