No IE

Microsoft Internet Explorer Problems - Again

Microsoft's new Internet Explorer 8 is a big step in the right direction, however, it does not handle CSS Pseudo-classes correctly. These classes are widely used to create drop down menus like the one you find under the banner at the top of each page on this site. IE7 has many other problems but it handled these classes correctly. To overcome this we must force IE8 into "compatibility Mode" and add code to fix a few of IE7s problems so our site menu will work properly. We no longer make any attempt to support Internet Explorer 6.5 or earlier nor do we support any other none compliant browser.

Time To Upgrade

If you want to see these pages as the were intended to look, give one of the new superior browsers a try. Firefox3, Opera and Google Chrome are all excellent browsers, they are FREE, they are very easy to download and install and they have many features that are not available on older browsers. Visitors using any Microsoft browser or early versions of most other browsers will likely have problems viewing this site. It is time to move into the 21st century and upgrade to a true standards compliant browser.

Firefox 3   Opera 9.x for Windows   Google Chrome for Windows

If you must use Microsoft's Internet Explorer, you should upgrade to IE8
