When I’m doing web development work (actually mostly editing Cascading Style Sheets), I can’t avoid that browsers render markup differently. Yes, there are standards, but there’s the market reality. Thus, although I edit using Firefox (my regular browser), I really need to check with Internet Explorer.
So, how much of the browser world does my work cover? According to statistics for December 2006 from TheCounter, here’s the top 8 browsers in use (from their list of 18).
1. MSIE 6.x | 19691823 | (70%) | |
2. MSIE 7.x | 3491913 | (12%) | |
3. FireFox | 3070730 | (11%) | |
4. Safari | 830311 | (3%) | |
5. MSIE 5.x | 367278 | (1%) | |
6. Unknown | 254895 | (1%) | |
7. Opera x.x | 163697 | (1%) | |
8. Netscape 7.x | 98265 | (0%) |
