I don’t understand why sites do this. It makes it harder on both the user and the site programmers. They have to know every time a new numbered version of every browser that comes out in order to make it work. But of course they DON’T.
Why not use >= ??? (If FirefoxVersion >= 1 Then…)
My SIL had the exact same problem with school software - only she is a teacher and the site was for entering grades. She had IE7 and apparently the site ONLY worked with IE 5.5 or 6. Why not >= 5.5?
I had to send her over to her parents’ house to use their machine with IE6 so she could enter grades for the semester. I also told her to please send a note to the school’s IT people alerting them to the final release of IE7 (which had happened months before) and suggesting maybe their staff should update the requirements.
