For show off you have to pay
Recently, a very wide range of webmasters have been saying that “use a normal browser from among my two favorites.”
Today, I clicked on the banner in the header of the habr - and, going to the advertised site, I saw the following inscription:
it looks like you are still using a prehistoric browser
Ikonsa does not want to show you icons in IE6, try upgrading to version 7, but rather 8 at once.
Better yet, set yourself a normal browser:
Firefox Opera Chrome Safari
Strictly speaking, I have all the browsers listed above. But I use Avant on the basis of the sixth IE - I need it that way. And according to the statistics of the sites I follow, the share of IE6 reaches 20%.
')
Total - people, instead of cross-cutting the site, instead of redirecting explorer to a simplified site - are urging to change the browser.
Total - let's count. As a business owner, I make decisions based on numbers:
How many visitors will change the browser, and how many will leave? Well, if you estimate on the eye - will leave 99%
How much is advertising on Habré for this site?
How many people with IE6 lose Icon? Suppose, given that among webmasters, the share of IE is less than among regular users, the loss will be only 5-10%
Total - owners of Ikonzy must calculate what is more important to them
Lose 5% of users or pay html-coder for cross-browser compatibility.
The site is certainly good. Again, the owners probably know what they are doing, calculated all of the above and decided that it would be more profitable to refuse IE6 than to finish the site for them. It is normal - when it is money and a weighted decision.
The problem is that a lot of schoolchildren look at this approach and rivet sites, checking cross-browser compatibility only through the validator, not with their eyes. And the fact that despite the validity of the site is falling apart - absolutely does not touch them. The trouble is that for their youthful maximalism and Ponte often have to pay site owners, losing money because of this approach, imposed by the studio-coder.
Do cross-browser sites! - Do not allow sites to lose customers.
