Browser Differences

[clarise]

When you create a website, do you optimize it for Internet Explorer, Firefox, Opera, or Mozilla? I believe they have differences and so it becomes important how you want a site to appear in a particular browser.

I mostly get my sites to work in FireFox as I have found that FF is the only browser that seems to become a pain in coding to get the website to look how you want it, I always check in other browsers as IE can also look a mess when coding for the style of FireFox

I've got all the different browsers on my computer, and I make sure everythings working on all of them. If something looks all jacked up on one of the browsers, I'll change it til there's something that loads correctly on all of them.

This is one of the hardest things to do in coding. Thankfully Dreamweaver MX helps out on this. However, it is still time-consuming, and minding more than two browsers also produces more than just splitting headaches.

Makes you want to just develop full-flash websites when these things happen

I try and code sites so they work in Firefox, which is the browser I use. I've been to a lot of sites that have errors when viewed in firefox but not when viewed in IE. But I also try and make the websites friendly to both browsers and others too.

I thought Mozilla and Firefox are the same. Considering that a better number of internet users use IE, perhaps you should make viewing your site more friendly in IE. Anyway, it is best to view your codes in both browsers.

Well, Mozilla is the project itself - as in the suite that has Firefox and Thunderbird in.

Isn't the problem between HTML and Firefox fixed already? I've seen a lot of messed up pages in Firefox that used to work fine in IE in the past, but that has been gone for months... Are there still a lot of bugs left?

So far I've just made sites IE and firefox compatible. It's really annoying because of how time consuming it can be when something will work on one thing but not the other. I'm just hoping for the best that my site works in other browsers oO

A bunch of people got me to switch to Firefox, and i really don't see a difference. I just can't get some video plugins to load properly, but other than that, it's fine.

and what about IE7? I haven't tested it yet but it seems it will relaunch the microsoft browser again
