OK, so I am going to upgrade to IE7... it looks like most of the admin cp isn't compatible with IE6. I don't think this will be fixed, right?

everything works in FF perfectly..... anyway who uses IE these days :P

My site has about 20% IE6 users... the rest are Firefox 1.5/2 and IE7 users...

I mean, I can understand that IE7's adoption is so quick that it doesn't really matter to support IE6.

Well, I don't think it is a good idea for users to see the AdminCP, is it?

Besides, the Internet Explorer is not a browser known for its security. Administrators shouldn't use it.

Firefox, Opera, Safari and Konqueror are much more reliable browsers.

Yep, I know.

IE6 is still 'supported', however it's getting to the point that going far out of our way to fix quirks that *only* show up in IE6 isn't worth it anymore. IE7 is the most recent release of the browser, and Microsoft has made some great improvements (while not perfect...nothing is though). Bugs that happen in IE6 can be reported...they just won't get entirely the same attention that a bug that happens in every browser will.

yep just what I thought.....all latest versions are being supported ;) if you have got a legal windows then there shouldn't be a problem with getting IE 7 ;)

Its hardly IPS's fault that IE isn't compliant :P

I'd reccomend Mozilla Firefox, it works in almost 100% of cases.

Reguardless if browser prefrence... IE7 is a improvement. If you haven't read up on the Vista version of IE7, you should take a look. It really does remove nearly 99.7 percent of all flaws because of its severely limited access. 'Protected Mode' is what it is called. The only things that can be exploted through IE7 would be through third party apps like Flash or Adobe PDF. Look into it. ;)

Thanks Brandon for your info. Good to know when I can get a licence next year and I get on from school. I'll use my Portable Firefox.
*Note: Community college = school. Not middle or high school. Probably would have internet rights removed.

As for who still uses IE, I can't stand firefox, thus use IE7.
