I am always looking for a way to justify dropping support for IE 6 as a web developer. Generally, for small projects, I won’t officially support a browser less than 10% of market share unless the client requires otherwise. I never waist my time on browsers that are less than 5%. I just have better things to spend my time on, and I don’t feel bad that Safari decides to render differently than the other major browsers.
I code to standards and don’t want to go down the rabbit hole of supporting EVERY browser’s unique issues.
Yesterday Michael Wood mentioned that IE 6 was really starting to trail in use. So I went looking at my stats and was stunned to see how far it had fallen.
So can you help? If you would send me your website and browser usage I would appreciate it. You can comment below, or email me. If you want your site to remain anonymous, just let me know.
I am looking for the following information:
Top 3 to 5 browser brands (IE, Firefox, Safari, etc..). Then top browsers by version:
IE 8, IE 7, FireFox, IE 6, etc… With the percentages.
Thanks!
