In my book, anyone who still uses IE deserves what they get. I do try to get everything as compatible as possible, but I no longer kill myself for IE.
I'm sorry but I don't buy this line of reasoning. Making things work in the 3 most popular browsers isn't normally such a hassle and there is always a work around available that will help you achieve what you set out to. In my case, I knew of a specific work around and Gsx confirmed my thinking but I'm just not entirely satisfied that I haven't done something wrong that is causing this issue which is why I am looking for a more suitable fix rather than a hack.

If you feel comfortable forcing users to change browsers because you couldn't be bothered to find a way to make things work then that's fine. Me, I'd rather find a solution to my problem.
