Not ALL charts are annoying to revise, especially the monthly revisions his set requires.

Sorry Doug...I forgot about that. I use Mozilla Firebird so it's been a very long time since I've seen a pop-up [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Well, I have to have IE because of the webdesign, but then I have a copy of Netscape to test features, and then I have a copy of opera for the opera weirdoes.

Webdesign is a nightmare! [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Those darned new popp ups defeat the pop up blocker installed with ZoneAlarm Pro. Grr..

Mozilla would fix that problem. I haven't seen a pop-up add in months. You could always delegate IE to "troubleshooting" mode and Mozilla as your main browser. I think that's what my wife does with her site.

I don't think you guys understand.

If I start simply using Firefox or Mozilla, and designing pages to match my predominantly-used browser, I'm going to risk 98% of my users complaining that they're seeing strange pages.

Remember the Flash menu that 20% of my users couldn't see, primarily because they refused to download Flash or lacked the technical wizardry to click the download button? [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Still, the webmaster there is using far too many pop ups.

Use the Google toolbar with IE. It has a pop-up blocker feature that works great. Didn't see a one on that site.

I use IE and have gotten like 3 popups in the 2 months I've owned the computer. No popup blocker at all. I think it's because I'm going through a router on a wireless network.

Doug, it's just you. Admit it.

I'm using IE with nothing more than Norton watching my back. No popups.
