I Dropped IE6! written by: Lee Richmond posted on: 12 April 2009
That's right as a developer I have decided it is time to stop supporting Internet Explorer 6 in my work, there are a lot of reasons for this, a side from the fact that Microsoft always seem to fall short of fully supporting web standards in favour of adding some other weird and wacky ideas, Internet Explorer 6 is 8 years old now and has been followed up with version 7 which while it still doesn't fully support web standards made a much better attempt than version 6.
Another reason is the amount of time that has to be dedicated to making applications look and function properly on IE6, if anything I would personally say I have spent more time trying to make things work with this browser than any other and it has got to the point now where I personally feel like I am flogging a dead horse.
It's time for Microsoft to lay IE6 to rest.
