theinquirer.net — He’s running some operating system called Linux and using Fireferret but gets an annoying message from Barclays and Mind Leaders (motto: e-learning that works) telling him to go away and use Internet Exploder. We tried it using Windows XP and Fireferret and got the same result too, as you can see below.

If only it could run ActiveX

That was true a couple of years ago. However, every other web designer under the sun except the f**kers that make these websites can create a cross-browser website.

WTF? Braclays are *PAYING* for anyone to use mindleaders for *FREE*. Instead of bitching why dont you ask them to pay for some other companys product for you?

That's funny, I saw this the weekend after I had to complete a mindleaders.com course for work. I noticed I couldn't use Firefox or Safari so I sent them the below message and got the below reply.=========================Wow, I didn't think any sites were still IE 6.0 specific, but sure enough I can't get into this with Safari or Firefox. That's kinda lame folks, it's 2008, there are other major browsers out there! <a class="user" href="http://central.mindleaders.com/lms/login.jsp?sitei">http://central.mindleaders.com/lms/login.jsp?sitei</a> ...=========================and got this reply:==========================================Thank you for contacting Technical Support. Regarding your query, our site requires IE6 or later. IE7 and whatever versions may be forthcoming will also be acceptable. Regarding other browsers/operating systems, we are well aware that there are alternatives. However from a support standpoint we have designed our software to meet our specific business needs. We do keep track of browser/OS stats with regard to the hits our site gets. Those data are reivewed periodically with regard to consideration for future development. However at this time, IE and Windows are required.=========================================
