Be careful just quoting statistics without context. Numbers can tell
any story you want them too if you approach them from the right
angle. W3 Schools browser stats are a bit biased since their visitors
are generally more tech savvy than the average user. There are other
numbers that tell a different story:

I stand by my original statement. Saying you don't want to support
IE7 is just a arbitrary as saying "I don't want to serve customers
that wear blue shirts", or "I don't want to serve customers like to
watch football"...
Telling customers to not use IE7 is just as bad as what some
developer's used to do 10 years ago when they would put statements on
their websites saying things like "This site is best viewed using
Internet Explorer with a 1024x768 screen resolution".

Thanks for all the responses.
I was thinking that it could be done in a Filter, maybe use the
ContextFilter. Hopefully it is a good place to do the check.
Thanks,

Any ideas on this...
My ecommerce pages are very bad in IE7. Hence, I don't want to
support
IE7.
Where are the hooks to provide this kind of check?
Thanks a lot.

Hello,
I don't want to support IE7, so I want to display a message to
the user
saying
'use IE8, firefox etc.'
How can this be done
