Bye bye IE6!

Posted by filed under Technology

Hope none of you are using it, because I’ve just added a bit of conditional comment magic to my header that makes Internet Explorer users who are browsing with versions older than 6.0 totally crash. I’ve just spent an afternoon of work coding a website in spunky, clean XHTML & CSS 3 and the whole thing breaks on IE6.

And so, I’m done. I no longer support IE6. Go Firefox, go Chrome, go Safari, just don’t go IE!

edit: If anyone is interested, here is the bit of conditional comment. It needs to get added to your HTML or XHTML page, in the head section, after the title tag. Have fun!

<!–[if lte IE 6]>
<style>*{position:relative}</style><table><input></table>
<![endif]–>

XHTML: You can use these tags: <a href="" title=""> <abbr title=""> <acronym title=""> <b> <blockquote cite=""> <cite> <code> <del datetime=""> <em> <i> <q cite=""> <s> <strike> <strong>
