It can't be simplified so much. The issue is more complicated. Being a web developer I can tell you with confidence that IE6 is still the most widely used browser (partly due to piracy and hence the inability to upgrade to IE7 and partly because users are still naive when it comes to adopting cutting edge technology). We do take the pain of making sure our website works across all browser. We are able to do that because we use appropriate libraries that take the pain out. But it's still a very costly affair. Banks could only outsource development of their sites. Vendor now has two options i) to build a site that is cross-browser compatible ii) Convince (or confuse) the bank that IE6 is the only browser out there. And you know what a business would go far :) _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, email [email protected] with "unsubscribe <password> <address>" in the subject or body of the message. http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc
