cmbecker69@, IMHO it doesn't matter what browser a developer uses to browse the web. It's the users who matter for ANY website, and since there is still a large number of users who still prefer IE-8, a site shouldn't break for them. While Microsoft may think that they can force everybody currently using XP to buy a new copy of windows, that is an expense that is simply not reasonable to expect, so blocking XP from loading a later version of IE simply compounds the problem? OK most people will be using a newer free browser in place of IE anyway, but only last week I had to help 'uninstall' IE9 from a machine as the on-line parts service that it was accessing stopped working. OK the site needs updating, but if the resource is not available to carry out the work ....
Heck - I'm still running W2k on systems as the cost of replacing some software makes upgrading an impossibility. php.ne used to be a good example of how sites should work, the current disjointed mess is certainly not an example of good practice! -- Lester Caine - G8HFL ----------------------------- Contact - http://lsces.co.uk/wiki/?page=contact L.S.Caine Electronic Services - http://lsces.co.uk EnquirySolve - http://enquirysolve.com/ Model Engineers Digital Workshop - http://medw.co.uk Rainbow Digital Media - http://rainbowdigitalmedia.co.uk
