Comment on Don't Stop Supporting IE6parent

Comments

Is anyone really suggesting going back to the days of blocking on sniffed UA? I don't think so.

When people say "not supporting IE6" I think they mean no longer doing browser specific bug fixing - that's what I mean. Provided the majority of textual content is viewable I consider IE6 done (ditto links2 my only currently tested text browser). If text is not viewable (as in an MS site I visited recently with IE6!) then the client has to pay a little extra if they want to up the support.

Graceful degradation is surely the lowest level of support any designer will accept, no?

So I'm targeting XHTML1-trans and CSS2.1 with enhancements for JavaScript and CSS3 capabilities.
