firefox or IE

rtil · October 16, 2007 07:23 PM

as i've been designing the new layout i've been noticing firefox is ignoring a lot of the css and table scripting i've been doing. basically everything looks better in IE. although i'm sure there's some way to get firefox to pay attention to the changes in the code i've made, i won't do it unless the majority of you browse using firefox. i know already that around 60% of the people that visit my site are visiting using IE, but the forums get a different crowd. so just vote in the poll . if you have any tips on how to get firefox to recognize div tags and alpha filters for css, let me know.

sorry ryan, I use firefox
i like it a lot more than ie
ie is gay and acts weird and slow to me
but i don't know a lot about how internet stuff works, so

Firefox is my thing. I used to be totally against it a few years ago, until I realized IE sucks.

I use Firefox. IE 6.0 is terrible but I'm not sure about IE 7 since I've never tried it.

i got 7 a few months ago and that's all i use. i only switch to firefox if i have some sort of problem, which is never. but our school has firefox shortcuts everywhere, so i usually just click on it. that's when i noticed the issues. but so far it seems to be predominantly a firefox crowd here .. guess i'll have to dumb down the code.

i personally would like opera the best if it had a lot of extensions like firefox, i can't stand IE :<

i don't see what is so bad about IE minus the fact people exploit it , but that's because it's used by a large majority of the internet. all you have to do to avoid getting malware on it is to not be completely retarded. if firefox was used by that large a volume of people it would be exploited as well. also i tried the new version of opera for a month or two, it's horrible.

how are the extensions on IE if it has any? Security isn't really a problem, it is a matter of customization for me

rtil · October 17, 2007 01:39 AM

i have no idea, i never felt the need to customize my browser . the only plugin i've ever remembered using is an SWF catcher, which worked with both ie and firefox

I use IE a bit when my AOL browser is acting funny. I'm more concerned about speed and security then anything.

well I guess i figured it out!!!!

also, there isn't anything wrong with ie, ryan
I just like firefox more
it just seems like ie is trying to make viewing the internet pleasurable
for people who don't understand anything
things like screwing with the text
it looks like it was typed with flash and exported at a low quality
I just like firefox's independence I guess

also, what is opera
i've heard of it but I don't know anyone who uses it

rtil · October 17, 2007 06:10 AM

what you\\\'re talking about is probably cleartext or truetype, i forget what it\\\'s called but it\\\'s either turned on and some people (such as yourself) don\\\'t like the look of it, it can be turned off rather easily. either that or its off and the text looks like crap which is how i feel . it\\\'s basically anti-aliasing text

also i believe opera was the first browser with tabbed browsing and boasted a "faster" browsing experience, however i never noticed any difference and it has fallen behind the times in terms of script support

it holds about 1% of today\\\'s browsing market

rtil · October 17, 2007 06:50 AM

fixed one issue, now moving on to a very strange one. search box just embeds itself on the page instead of hiding in its pop up box like it's supposed to in firefox. dunno what the hell i'm gonna do about that one

rtil · October 17, 2007 06:59 AM

ok that was too easy

when it comes to technology these days IE is BAD.

it displays sites incorrectly and cant read code as well as firefox. In my opinion it should be discontinued. It's fucking useless, I've hated it ever since firefox came out. There's no point in having it. Firefox is a much better web browser, has more handy features and is just easier to use. I find it loads pages faster too.

people who use IE are gay and stupid. it just reminds me of old people who don't know shit about the internet and sit on their saggy asses browsing in IE with a dumb look on their face. GUHHHHHH FFFFFUCKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk

UHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

DIIIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

shittyfurryass · October 17, 2007 08:59 AM

it is a web browser, not a fucking mac commercial
