It’s our fault. They will continue to use it as long as we provide support/hack for IE. We should encourage them to use a better browser like Firefox or Chromium..
True. Which is why I have a “Check Your Browser” text widget on my blog. (I’ve got to update that with some PHP that checks the browser version.)
Instead, we want to make our sites look “Presentable” across browsers. I don’t think you are going to lose tons of traffic because your footer background is blue, instead of gradient blue, for example.
Also very true. All of my websites and blogs are viewable in IE, but I don’t go out of my way to make them appear as they do in FF. I do go out of my way to educate my readers about their choice in browsers. Quite frankly, a lot of people don’t know that there are other browsers out there besides the IE that comes bundled with Windoze.
