I am thinking of using a type of code that will not work with Internet Explorer, it will be to the advantage of those using Firefox or Mozilla, meaning faster load times and a bit of an ease on the databases.

Basically what I can see at the moment in terms of those visiting Airline Mogul:

56% Use Firefox
38% Use Internet Explorer
3% Use Opera
2% Use Safari
1% Use Mozilla

So the majority of people will be un-affected. What do you all think?

I will have to say NO, due to the fact we are losing 44% of our "Clientele".

44% is a major proportion considering there is only 184 users. (44% of 184 = 81.)

i use IE and firefox together its not hard to download and i think much better the IE7 by a long way. if people want to play this game it wont be that hard for people to get it up and running

I can't have firefox on my computer as it *cabbage*s up connections to my dad's company server in Germany. I think that its important to keep it open to IE as well as other browsers as for some people, they cannot use a different browser for certain reasons.
ho said aviation sites were sexist?
