which got voted down considerably, I point out the need to ignore Internet Explorer, or at least its old version 6, for the following reasons:

  1. It is hard to hack for, and some features don't exist at all
  2. The more you hack for IE, the longer people blindly use it (vicious cycle)

My website, azabani.com, doesn't hack for IE at all. The layout looks somewhat broken in the browser, and most of my projects require features not present in IE's codebase.

I would like to know if you support my view, or if you share views with those who downvoted my answer.
