i think its about time we stopped coding for anything lower than IE7, people need to be weened of crappy browsers (not that IE7 is any better), my thoughts are that if my site doesnt work on IE5 then tough, they should update more often or just d/l firefox or opera.

In my opinion that because so many developers are coding for crap browsers it is adding to the slowness of acceptence new technologies in the web development world because people think that they dont need to get a new browser because IE5 works fine, as was said in another post about HTML 5, it will add loads of new stuff that will cut down my work load but because there are still idiots around who complain that it doesnt work on IE3 we wont see HTML 5 for many many many years, not in main stream development anyway, it angers me.

And i think its time that we took a stand on this instead of moaning and applying dodgey CSS hacks left right and center

That wasnt aimed at anyone in particular <3
