Nathan, If it was web based for the average joe blow to look at I agree, but in this case it is not. And intranet systems are always designed with one browser in mind and one only, and this is usually IE because these companies have agreements with M$.
Did you stop to think about that? -----Original Message----- From: Nathan Strutz [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, 8 December 2004 5:06 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: SOT: Browser Stats (stirring the pot) I agree with pretty much everything Umer has said in this thread. Honestly, at the risk of hurting feelings and being called names and whatnot, the reason a web app that does the things we've talked about in this thread should not be cross-browser compatable is either a lack of skills on the developer's part, lack of time/money on the manager's part, or retarded requirements writers. When you are experienced at developing apps for all browsers, it becomes harder to develop one for a single browser, than it is for all. There are a few exceptions, mostly dealing with activeX (though FF has a plugin for that), html text areas (though fckeditor 2 will be released soon), and VBScripting (does anyone actually use that?). These are very minor. If you can't develop the app talked about in this thread to be cross-browser compatable, it's my theory that you're just inexperienced at cross-browser development. -nathan strutz ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Special thanks to the CF Community Suite Gold Sponsor - CFHosting.net http://www.cfhosting.net Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:186567 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
