The aim of the AnyBrowser-Campaign is to stop (and, if possibly, reverse) the trend towards browser-specific designing which was at its height in the late 1990s. The internet should be open to all users – and therefore it should be possible to view any site with any browser. Some pages make look better with a certain browser than with some others, but the essential information should be open to everyone. This includes the use of alternatives for certain tags or objects which are only supported by very few browsers (such as java-applets and flash – think of text-only browsers in this context!).
I support these efforts, and have therefore tried to design my homepage in a way that it can be viewed with any browser using any operating system and any screen resolution. Furthermore, it is my opinion that in this context it is also advisable to adapt to the recommendations of W3C. As one can see on every page of my project, all pages are (at least) valid HTML 4.01.
I tried my best to make my pages accessible to everyone: Especially during the year 2005, I have doubled my efforts concerning the usability with text and speech browsers. However, even though I have tested the project with the most common browsers (MS Internet Explorer, Netscape/Mozilla and Opera) working with several operating systems (Windows in several versions, as well as Linux), there could still be pages which are not displayed correctly under some unforeseen circumstances. Should this be the case, please do not hestitate to let me know in order that I can get rid of the problem – simply fill out the form below:
Noticed Problems
Despite all efforts to write for every browser, it is often recommended to use certain browsers for ideal presentation (as I have already mentioned before). To achieve this, I suggest to use a browser capable of displaying graphics and supporting most features of Cascading Style Sheets Version 2.0 (e.g. Mozilla/Firefox, or Netscape 6.0 or higher). The very common MS Internet Explorer does only understand most of the definitions of CSS 2.0 in its most recent version 7.0, which is why you cannot appreciate all features with this browser (in version 6.0 or below – and even in version 7.0, it still has some flaws). But still, every page should be displayed without any problems if you are using Internet Explorer 5.0 or above. If you are using a rather old browser supporting only CSS 1.0 (such as MS Internet Explorer 4.x or Netscape Navigator 4.x), some minor problems concerning the design could arise.
