846397 2010-01-07 06:10:00 Firefox is not the most used browser going by the stats I get on two web sites I maintain.

I think he means what version of the browser. eg IE6, IE7, IE8, Firefox 2, Firefox 3, Firefox 3.5, etc etc. Not the browser in general...

846399 2010-01-07 20:27:00 I don't put a huge effort into making my site IE6 compatible, instead I put on messages encouraging them to upgrade/switch.

Also, if you go by version numbers, Firefox 3.5 is the most popular browser :D

I too put a message on my home page recommending Firefox saying that the surfer may not be able to view all our features correctly, which is true. I have checked that everything works well in Firefox but some features do not show with IE.

While I am not a fan of IE I realise that because it is included with Windows most people - usually of the type I want to attract to my site - use IE simply because it is there. Many have not heard of Firefox and in many cases the ones that have are not interested as IE appears to do all they want. Having not heard of the advantages of chucking IE they happily carry on with IE. Pity, really.

Those who are not offended by IE probably deserve to have it .
