IE Only Sites

Posted by: Anonymous Coward on September 28, 2004 02:12 AM
Many of the sites that are "IE only" check the user agent string, and don't care that the site is actually compatible with other browsers. If using Firefox, try the user agent switcher extension and change to the IE user agent. www.manateeedc.com and www.activision.com now are compatible with Firefox (with the user agent switcher), even though the site claims otherwise. I'm sure you've heard this before, though. But this is still no excuse not to make sites compatible with all browsers, it just shows the ignorance of these web designers.
