I am curious, Ulf. A disaster in what sense? Do you mean artistically, contentwise or technically? |

A few years ago, I read some studies that concluded that the average internet user waits for up to 8 seconds when a web page is displayed, if the user don't see what he/she is looking for within that time, he/she moves on...
My patient is shorter than that, and when I tried some of the pages, I see nothing unless I WAIT (for what seems like an eternity) for the text to slowly scroll by...
Perhaps "disaster" was a bit harsh (I’ll take that back with apologies), and "not so user friendly" would have been more appropriate.
Do's and Dont's in web design |

Yes, I agree with you. 8 seconds on broadband is equivalent to more than a minute on dialup. One more thing that annoys me is websites designed only for IE and do not work on other browsers.

"JaneDoe", sorry for the off-topic discussion in your thread, but since we already got started we might as well go on... - - - - - quote:

Well, reality is that 90+% of users are on Windows (i.e. have access to IE), and 80+% are using IE, so if you have limited time/resources for your web site development, you would probably make sure it works for IE first...
From an earlier discussion, I recall that sukhdev is trying to test his site with most well-known browsers and he should have credit for that. |

Ulf,
I've seen you occasionally at PA. I must come up and introduce myself.
