People Still Use IE6

May 05, 2007

I checked my analytics today to see what browsers people are using to view my site. Most of you are all tech-savvy Fire Fox users, but I was surprised to find out that over 60% of my IE visitors are using Internet Explorer 6!


I did some research and found out that you can run IE6 and IE7 on the same machine! *UPDATE: I found out that you can run IE3 IE4.01 IE5 IE5.5 and IE6 on the same computer. *


Just download their virtual machine and run the IE6 image. Its slick! Then attach the IE specific style sheet with the following code.



<!—[if IE 6]><link rel="stylesheet"type="text/css"href="http://marcgrabanski.com/css/ie6.css"/><![endif]—>

Fix your IE6 bugs in the new IE6 style sheet. Problem solved!

The following video displays very nicely that you should not be using IE6 and switch to FireFox 2.
