Hi all, Ref "Links for light reading" article: http://mashable.com/2010/06/01/ie6-below-5-percent/
Which basically states IEv6 has dropped below the 5% threshold across USA and Europe. I just took a peek at our own stats for May 2010. A very large set limited to UK online shoppers only. And I couldn't agree less with the article. Our figures are from such a large representation they cannot be readily ignored. While I cannot print the actual numbers, the browser percentages should be fine. I thought they may be of use to others working in the UK and of general use worldwide. Internet explorer only: IEv8: 48.26% IEv7: 37.14% IEv6: 14.58% Other: 0.02% In general: IE: 66.12% Firefox: 16.25% Safari: 8.06% Chrome: 6.89% Others: 2.67% So IEv6 is still at 9.64% overall. Virtually double that stated by the article. Sorry for the bad news but IEv6 is still too relevant to ignore. And by the way who actually said 5% is the "ignorable" threshold? I'd of thought more like 2-3% personally. Regards, Mike Foskett http://websemantics.co.uk/ ________________________________ This is a confidential email. Tesco may monitor and record all emails.
