All geek questions in one place

Do I need to watch, the site is the same in the entire browser?

  • Do I need to watch, the site is the same in all browsers? Is this a legal requirement in any country?
  • Does pixel perfection (from inch to inch fit design) a madness?
  • doesn’t ask IE6 Pixel perfection, at the moment, is this crazy?
  • Can JavaScript be used for visual enhancement, for example, enabling border radius in IE using JavaScript and CSS in other browsers?

How to explain to the client that the website will never look, the pixel is perfect for all browsers on all devices and devices?

"How to explain to the client that the website will never look, the pixel is perfect for all browsers on all OS and devices?"

I haven't found the killer argument yet. Here are some that have had some success:

  • Of course we can do it. But, it will cost you ... a lot.

  • Take out the research of Jacob Nielsen . Most users will not notice and do not care about trivial cosmetics.

  • Tell em (and show them): "Functionality and functions first. Minor aesthetics later." This smart approach is devilishly good because Feature X and Bug Y are ALWAYS more important to good customers than rounded corners on MSIE 6.

  • Suppose I was selling stickers. Would you expect the sticker to look the same on coarse wood, like on smooth glass? On the dirty floor? Someone's cheeks? Stickers are used in all these places, but no one is trying to do the same job stickers everywhere; it is not practical. Web browsers are even more diverse and have thousands of permutations.
    (Similar clothing also worked.)

Otherwise, I am the second waiwai933 (and others):

  • Make sure the functionality and overall look are good in the top 5 browsers, but investigate the gross problems that can appear in .org browsers.

  • Code for standards and don't waste time using javascript for minor enhancements to the look ...

    • The vast majority of users will not notice and will not see this difference.
    • The offensive browser will “leave” (or be used only by bots) in a few months or in a couple of years.
    • If a discerning user sees that the site looks a little better in Broswer X than Browser MSIE, it can simply switch - something will improve for everyone.

It doesn't have to be exactly the same, but you are not elements that go beyond where it should be. If this happens, people will be sad. And then crazy. And then refuse to pay you if it works in more popular browsers.

I highly recommend not using Javascript for visual stuff; since this is Controller in the MVC pattern. In addition, the border radius is good, but it is not absolutely necessary, so there are no special reasons for its implementation in JS.

I think you need to check at least all the major browsers (IE, Safari, Firefox, Chrome, Opera .....) and make sure that the site looks fine and functioning properly.

Personally, I like to add javascript to optimize for the browser you are focusing on, but make sure that it does not do something useless in other browsers

I used browsershots.org to quickly see how a website looks in multiple browsers :)

Customer pays bills. If you don't like their rules, find a new customer :)
