I HATE You Internet Explorer!
Well I thought I was just about ready to get the new site officially launched. I then opened the dreaded Internet Explorer 7 to view what I had been working on the past few days. Wow, what a mess! Divs moved to the right, divs on top of divs, divs completely off the page etc etc. I’m ready to scream! Back to the drawing board.
I don’t know if I will ever get this done.
Here are some useful links involving problems with the glorious Internet Explorer.
OMG! I’m working on a site for a client and I thought well lets check it in IE8. Result: Loads of script conflicts (such as PNG Alpha transparency in combination with jQuery opacity statements) and heaps of display problems. I’ve tried to look for a png fix such as the ones for IE6 and came to the conclusion…. THERE IS NOT ONE!!!!!
AND NOW COMES IT!!!!.
I’ve checked all the sites that I made over the last 2 years in IE8 and I was shocked to see that they all have major issues regarding usability, display and functionality.
After cursing for an hour or so and wishing Bill Fucking Gates everything what we don’t want to have, I really don’t know how I’m going to explain my former clients that I need days and in some cases even, weeks, to solve all the issues and that they have to pay for me to do so while actually BILL FUCKING GATES have to pay me for that.
Seriously, I know that I as a web developer can’t ignore Internet Explorer, because there are still too many end users stuck with the shitiest browser on earth, but deep in my Firefox, Opera, Safari, Chrome, etc, HEARTH… I WISH I COULD!
hahaha, I feel your pain buddy! I don’t even want to think about IE8. I can’t conquer IE7 yet! I’m going to go a whole separate css file for IE.
