Browser Compatibility
The website was tested with several browsers under several display resolutions. Unfortunately it is almost impossible to create a website which is usable and looks alike in all browsers because of the compatibility problems between browsers and the errors and standard misconstruction of the widespread browser called Internet Explorer...
Tested browsers
Avonlea.hu was tested in 1024x768 and 1280x960 resolutions.
Firefox 2.x/3.x (Linux)- Firefox 2.x/3.x (Windows XP SP2)
Internet Explorer 6.0 (Windows XP SP2)- Internet Explorer 7.0 (Windows XP SP2)
Opera 9.5 (Linux)- Opera 9.5 (Windows XP SP2)
Safari 3.2.1 (Mac OS X 10.5)- Safari 3.2.1 (Windows XP SP2)
Browsers above cover ~98% of my visitors' browsers.
About 5-6% of visitors use their display in 800x600. Unfortunately some pages look a little different in this resolution than I imagined when planned this site, but mostly the design is correct in this resolution. Fortunately using 800x600 resolution is decreasing from month to month with some percents.
Recommended browsers
Of course anybody can switch to another browser any time, IE is not the only browser. Recommended alternate browsers:
- Firefox - one of the most up-to-date, modern, professional browsers. It supports standards very well, but it is a small, open sourced webbrowser. Highly recommended!
- Opera - a commercial browser developed by a Norwegian company. Small, fast and it is free of charge.
Using Internet Explorer is absolutely NOT recommended!
