Old web browsers are not just insecure, they also pose a problem for web designers as they have to design sites while keeping the older versions in mind.
If you like to help people upgrade their outdated browsers, Pushup has created a script that can be easily integrated in any blog or website.
This JavaScript checks the version of your site visitor’s browser and will show him an upgrade link if a new version is available.
Upgrading has many benefits:
- Pages display the way designers intend them to displaySecurity is improved
- Security is improved
- Style sheet support is improved
- You get more reliable support of dynamic behaviors in Web pages (like pull-down menus)
Also, Older browsers do not understand the latest versions of HTML and do not have reliable implementations of stylesheets, a powerful feature used by most modern Web designers. By working within the latest standards, Web designers have more control of how a page displays, sites can be more accessible to wider range of devices (including cell phones and accessibility software), and code can be kept much simpler.
So as tech bloggers and also for making our readers online session more secure I think its our responsibility to convince our readers to upgrade to the most recent version.
