Client realized their mistake and switched to a real browser. Some rants do have a happy ending! Le gasp!

snap1217ySometimes I debug on IE just to make sure that the website is working on the worst browser. If it Works on IE than it will work on the others. 😆

agaskins5897yNo offense... at all, but this isn't a happy ending. IE, sucky or not, is on most PCs and laptops. Almost everyone PC or laptop owned by non-techies... you really ought to make sure your creations look right in it. But I do totally get it man... I was co-owned of a webdesign company in early-mid 2000's and and it was really bad back then, IE sometimes needed it's own CSS file, now a days it's usually just an element or five.

I do shortcut. I block the IE. I say to use other browsers. :P
Maybe not a good approach, but we have not had any problems with the clients. They just want the app to work.
P.S. They are custom made web apps, not for general public.

Phone conversation between me and a client:
CLIENT: "I see it weird..."
ME: "Which browser are you using?"
CLIENT: "The one you tech guys don't like"
ME: "Internet Explorer, isn't it?"
CLIENT: "Yeah, I'll switch to Firefox then."
