Upgrade Your Browser: Is your browser getting old? Does it sometimes show Web sites in peculiar ways? Do you receive warning messages that your type of browser is no longer supported? It is probably time to upgrade your browser. Upgrading has many benefits:
What Is Wrong With Old Browsers? Basically, technology is always improving. Older browsers do not understand the latest versions of HTML and do not have reliable implementations of stylesheets, a powerful feature used by most modern Web designers. By working within the latest standards, Web designers have more control of how a page displays, sites can be more accessible to wider range of devices (including cell phones and accessibility software), and code can be kept much simpler. Old version browsers, including Internet Explorer and Netscape, were created before HTML and stylesheets were fully standardized and therefore varied greatly in how they worked, making it very complex to write web sites for them. Newer browsers are much more standards-compliant, making them more reliable in displaying what the Web designer intended and much more consistent in how they work compared to each other. |
