Netscape 4.72 is still a good test platform. (THAT PIC OF NETSCAPE 1.2 IS CLASSIC! If you really have that, save it. In 10 years it will be worth something!)

Mozillas' tabs are great, but I have trouble with some plug-ins, beyond the basic ones. like 3-D or even VHTML.

Opera's speedy but has trouble with complex .css and embedded frames.

IE6/Outlook Express are forced at you, but you MUST do

http://v4.windowsupdate.microsoft.com/en/default.asp

every week becasue the security risks for this browser (most of "us" use) are serious. I know this 20 year-old who can do NASTY things with Outlook.

In fact if you have OUTLOOK open with php, it can be like letting the hacker see your all your mail! I know this is true from looking at Zone Alarm attack records.

:cool:

XP SHOULD BE BANNED FROM ALL BOARDS! The new licensing prgram is truly evil. You have to keep paying and paying and paying and paying


PLUS THEY (MS) CONSIDER NOMINAL UPGRADES TO THE BROWSER AS -
"critical updates"

I like Opera a lot for it's design and ease of use. I just got frustrated with trying to get certain things to work and decided to use Mozilla as my main secondary. Some things just seem to end up looking very strange in Opera even thought they work perfectly in the others. As far as plugins for Mozilla or Opera... I really only use flash anyways. All the other plugins I could care less most of the time.

Mozilla - It's really a great browser. Once you use Mozilla for a few days, you'll never go back to IE except for testing purposes.

IE 6.0

We're using Opera now and I love it..alhtough Mozilla is the backup browser.. I detest IE and avoid it at all costs.

I use IE

I check my work in Netscrape for compatibility.. sometimes LOL

I check browser stats at http://www.echoecho.com/

The college I work at used to use Netscrape exclusively.. I swear the 5% of Netscape users are all on our campus!!
I made a fuss about it b/c you obviously can't teach people how to buidl websites if you don't have the browser used by the majority of net users.

http://www.anybrowser.com is a handy site for checking compatibility, too

I wish IE was skinnable ... :)
