I think what Scott meant was to display information for those people that use old browsers which do not display Web Standards Compliant pages properly.
So you create a web standards compliant site, but users with Netscape 4 can go and read why this site doesn't work in their browser. I am not sure if I like that idea though. I think a common page should contain helpful information, but should not be misused to voice our frustration with people that use outdated technology. > -----Original Message----- > From: Richard Czeiger [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Friday, 2 September 2005 3:02 PM > To: wsg@webstandardsgroup.org > Subject: Re: *****SPAM***** RE: [WSG] Text Size Statistics > > Ummm, if you were a developer would you put a link on your > non-standards > compliant site pointing to a page that tells the user why > your site is > bad???? > > R (either confused or not catching sarcasm on a Friday afternoon) > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Scott Swabey - Lafinboy Productions" > <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: <wsg@webstandardsgroup.org> > Sent: Friday, September 02, 2005 2:48 PM > Subject: *****SPAM***** RE: [WSG] Text Size Statistics > > > >> So what other pages should go here... > > > > How about a 'Why doesn't the site work in my browser' page, > somewhere to > > advocate the use of modern, standards compliant browsers. > Maybe then users > > would have a good reason to move away from non-compliant > browsers, and > > designers/developers would be rid of the need to worry > about 90% of the > > hacks we currently use. > > > > Regards > > > > Scott Swabey > > Lafinboy Productions > > www.lafinboy.com > > > > ****************************************************** > > The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ > > > > See http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm > > for some hints on posting to the list & getting help > > ****************************************************** > > > > > > > ****************************************************** > The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ > > See http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm > for some hints on posting to the list & getting help > ****************************************************** > > > > ****************************************************** The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ See http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm for some hints on posting to the list & getting help ******************************************************
