Browser compatibility

The majority of people accessing this site when it started in May 2006 were using Microsoft Internet Explorer 6. Since then a number of competitive browsers have become available and the website has seen a significant rise in the use of Mozilla Firefox, Opera, Safari & Google Chrome. Many people prefer the security (not to mention the independence of Microsoft) by using these free open-source browsers.

Internet Explorer was updated to version 7 in November 2006, to version 8 in May 2009, version 9 in March 2011 and version 10 in October 2012. Most personal IE users now have one of these versions as part of the Microsoft Windows automatic updating process.

It is the policy of this website to be compatible with all modern Internet browsers on all operating systems, as far as is possible without compromising the content quality. To this end, the website is now completely coded in HTML5 & CSS3, in accordance with W3C standards.

This website has been tested on the Windows, Linux (Ubuntu), Mac, IOS and Android (mobile) operating systems, using the latest versions of the following browsers; Firefox, Opera, Chrome, Internet Explorer and Safari.
