When 0.01% of people are using browsers that won't understand this kind of javascript, it's probably not worth it. 5 years ago, yes, you had to take into account the fact that a good handful of people would be using netscape 2, but even then, we were designing for the shiny new Netscape 3, with all it's advanced features. There is a reason for doing a browser-detect though, or at least finding a way around the problem: some people use screen readers, or parsers like betsie to present easy-to-read versions of a page. They won't like javascript. Max |
