Browser compatibility: IE6 is dying - whatcha gonna do now?
« on: February 24, 2010, 06:13:26 PM »
I've been noticing over the last few days a number of stories explaining how major web sites, from YouTube to PayPal and others are quickly phasing out support for the now long-decaying Internet Explorer 6.x...
 
I then start to thinking that even the newest Amiga browser for the classic platform was created long before IE4 was even invented, and I begin to ponder the impact on the platform.
 
I know this is all pretty much troll bait, but that's REALLY not my intent.  The lack of a real browser on the platform IS a pet peeve of mine, but I guess my only real question is this:
 
If there isn't even one developer or hobbyist in this community willing -- or able -- to step up and write a browser that's even basics compatible with modern standards, what will you guys do when the world adapts HTML 5 (which is coming VERY soon)?
