OK, that is further encouraging thanks...
I work on a Mac, and worse, not the latest one. I don't look at PC browsers
as often as I should and instead adopt a strategy of playing safe. But I DO
have a PC that I can turn on... And I DO hate it so (probably because it has
98SE). Besides, asking you lot is a nicer way of finding things out...
I believe, perhaps obviously, if there is not much in it re quality or size,
best to go with what will work on older browsers too. But this can be
overridden for quality. I suspect that older browsers are not quite as high
in most website makers priorities as in mine because I have a fondness for
fuddy duddy communities and old Macs... But this is not everything.
Are there any up to date research statistics shown on browser use that
anyone can recommend as trustworthy?
