Web Site FAQ

Browser Choice

This web site attempts to be viewable on any browser and is deliberately not optimised to suit any specific browser.

However, it does work best in "standards" based browsers such as Firefox, Opera, IE version 8 and Safari (on MS Windows at least).  I had IE version 7 in this list until I found some issues with centering divs (IE 7 doesn't support display: table <sigh />).

Web site Look and Feel

I'm not sure if you know this but designing web sites to support all browser versions is very nearly impossible.

This is because browsers in general have a pretty loose definition of "standards".  If I were to build a web site to suit the "standard", it would display very differently on different browsers, even differently on different versions of the same browser!

By far the worst browser in this respect is Microsoft Internet Explorer (IE).  Unfortunately, this is also by far the most common browser used by people around the world because it is supplied "free" with the Microsoft Operating System.  If a web site is designed to follow the standard, then it will work fine in Firefox, Opera, Safari and most other browsers but will break badly in IE.
