Hi all. Many of you will know that I'm in the process of building a new DM site. I didn't do any work on it during 2002, but I am intending to rectify that over the next few months, with the intention of having the first version on line in late spring early/summer. I need to make some decisions about new features that I would like to use, and this is based on browser capabilities. Therefore, it would help me a lot if you could tell me:
What browser you use, and what version (e.g. IE5.5, Opera 5)
What Operating System you use (e.g. Windows 98, Mac OSX)
What screen resolution you surf at (e.g. 800x600)
Although I intend to make the site as accessible as possible to everyone, your response will certainly help me out! Thank you.

Most often, IE6 in Win98 at 1024x768x32.
Other times, Netscape 7 in Linux at 1024x768x16 or 24.

Re: SURVEY: What browser/OS do you use?
As a linux user I have many different kind of browsers.
Personaly I prefer "dillo", which is a frameless JavaScript-unaware browser, but it's very fast. Otherwise I use "Mozilla" which is a heavy and slow browser, but it has JavaScript, CSS and that kind of spiffy stuff.
My favorite browser is "links". It's a faster-than-light text-only browser which produces nice easy-to-read results of sites with ugly graphics ( which of cource don't apply to dmweb
.
I have tried and rejected a lot of different browsers, and I would not like to be dependent upon JavaScript and similar. My web site of choise would be a no JavaScript, frameless, plain html-only page. I have seen beautiful examples of such pages. Some of them were also driven by php and cgi scripts (which can generate pseudo-dynamic html-pages). If you are interested in php than you can check out http://www.phpnuke.org and http://www.php.net. And I'm certain that Christophe knows something about php since he's using it.
