Generally, The websites are programmed to see what type of browsers are accessing them. Then the sites are developed to give the best visual display to the browsers that most often access them. Thus, I am not sure why the IE 8 would not display as good as IE 9.

So imagine my surprise when I attempted to visit Target.com today and got the following error message: Target Home Page Problems viewing Target.com ? It's because your browser isn't supported. Upgrade to one of the latest versions listed below to get the most out of your Target.com experience. list of 3 items Click here to download Internet Explorer Click here to download Mozilla Firefox Click here to download Google Chrome list end What the heck is going on here? What do they mean that my browser is not supported? I'm running XP Pro with IE 8, so since when is this browser not supported? IE 8 is the latest version of Internet Explorer that can run under XP, which, the last time I checked will continue to be supported by Microsoft through at least 2014. And don't even get me started with Firefox. Is there some reasonable explanation for this message? Could my screen reader, JAWS 9, be the culprit? Is there a work around for this problem? Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.
