Seriously, all the major university websites require IE, and most of the online shopping as well. The news, weather, the local video website, they all require IE. For the past year there have been Google Chrome advertisements on bus stops in Israel: real, physical, offline advertisements. That probably accounts for Chrome's increase in market share, but most people still don't even know what a browser is. My Israeli websites pop up a warning to IE users just to raise awareness, but of course they still work. > Thanks again for all the work you're putting into this !... > Thank _you_ for the help! -- Dotan Cohen http://gibberish.co.il http://what-is-what.com --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
