Lo all,

I just found myself laughing maniacally when I saw what IE6 did to my latest jquery enhanced semantic drop down menu, and have thus decided that it’s not worth my time or effort supporting this absolute piece of \*\*\*\* any more, and that there are far more important things in life than trying to hack my own products to fit into a product that Microsoft didn’t even build right the first time.

Seriiously though. the IE6 version differed so dramatically from IE7/FF/Safari/Chrome/Opera that I see no point in providing any kind of backward compatibiility.

Sod it…

Does anyone out there still support \<IE7 anyway. thoughts would be appreciated…

haha. srsly though. just pure Haw… :fight:
