How to lie with statistics 101.
Ya know, I get more and more irked every day by the repeated use of low
percentages of browser users as a reason for non-standard usage.
The fact is, if you multiply that percentage by the number of page views,
suddenly it's a different scenario!
Also, every person I see who pulls out these stats does so because their
site doesn't support other browsers. Well, duh. If your site doesn't
work with my browser, I go away, and you get a lot less page views from my
browser.
But let's assume that reliable percentages for standards-compliant
works-in-all-browsers sites were actually available, and matched those
percentages posted.
Bottom Line: Translate percentages into numbers of user, and then decide.
You'll make a different choice. .2% is nothing. .2% of 102369726 is
quite a lot.
