Dear one-browser Web designers: Don't say I didn't warn you Monday September 27, 2004 (08:00 AM GMT) By: Robin 'roblimo' Miller In my 2002 book, The Online Rules of Successful Companies, I said it was stupid to design Web sites that would work correctly only with the most popular Web browser. Yes, I told readers, over 90% of all Internet users today may use Microsoft's Internet Explorer (MSIE), but not long ago 90% of all Internet users ran Netscape. Web designers and site owners who made Netscape-only sites had to scramble madly to redo their work when MSIE started getting popular. "Learn from this!" I said. http://internet.newsforge.com/internet/04/09/17/1436256.shtml
