You appear to have forgotten my favorite browser, Safari. It is the browser packaged with Mac OS 10. It is the Apple company's first foray into the world of browser and in my opinion it is very well done. It is simple to use and very useful. There are still a few bugs being worked out, but that is only to be expected. Unfortunately you can only use it if you have a Mac.

Sorry Buddy,I Included The Most Used Browsers and " Safari" is in still Primary Condition, Once we have a full matured version of safari with most of scripting support we will consider it. Sorry for Not including Your Fav Browser " Safari". Once Again we will Conduct a new Poll when Goole Releases its "Gbrowser" then we will compare all browsers. CheersArunkumar.H.G

I would have to go for firefox, If you get it right on firefox just about everyone on the net can view your web pages. I have come across many sites that have been built on made up code using IE and I dont even bother to switch browsers its just one less visit for them and I can find what I want elsewhere.

well, being that the original question is what browser do you web design for...i'd have to say IE. Majority of the population of online users still use Internet Explorer. I think web designers should always base a layout on the browser that is being used the most...the browser i prefer, however, is mozilla firefox.

Im afraid I cannot vote any of those browsers because I use Netcaptor. It is a widely used browser. I have used firefox, but you cannot seem to get plugins for the websites as they dont have a site with plugins set up yet. Netcaptor has almost all of the things you have used, so far I have not seen transparency. The thing I truely like about netcaptor, is that the tabs are on the bottom of the browser, wheras all the others have it on the top. I think you can move your tabs to the top altho I prefer it at the bottom. They have both free, and paid versions of netcaptor.. http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ if you wish for more information ^_^

I use Opera for it's speed and tabbing, so naturally I create all my websites for this. I then adapt them so they still look good in IE, FF and Mozilla (whcih is as close as I can get to testing it on a mac browser). If anyone creates pages and tests them only in IE, please don't. It is:a) very amatuerishb) damaging to the web standards projectand c) really anoying to the countless people like me who do not use the popular however sh!t browser IE.and for those selfish people who don't care about any of that and need yet another reason to adapt their pages for more browsers,d) it discourages alot of potential veiwers of your site like me!

I think Mozilla or Firefox is the best bet for browser compatibility tests. You can test for IE, and i suggest doing so(because it breaks stuff due to its crappy design and lack of updates for a while). That being said, Firefox or Mozilla both use the same codebase for mutliple platforms. Building a site that looks good on them should look good to most people on most OS's. If people still DEMAND to use IE then just load a page saying go get firefox and make em download it.

ok, first I want to say: do not use Internet explorer! The IE is really bad when you compare it to the others! I used opera for a long while...its the best browser you can have, except that some site are not displayed very well...and for example you cant use opera for gmail!So I changed to firefox which is just great! Its the easiest and simplest browser! It so good, you have to try it. why using the IE when you can get a free firefox??
