Stumbling articles today evening , I found an interesting picture explaining how time is divided in schedule of a web developer. Very expressive and funny. Enjoy!

Cheers!

Im starting to get bored of the IE argument, most of the people I meet swear and cursor IE, primarily IE6, but when you listen to their frustrations its not the same frustrations the experts share, more often than not their layouts are simple and their JS non-existent. From what I’ve experienced they’ve jumped on the IE bashing wagon because they simply do not understand things such as box model, or quirks mode and their relationship etc. Most of the time, sorry to be blunt, they are shit web devs, plain and simple. Im not defending IE (or IE6) as complicated layouts must be frustrating but it cant be used as a universal excuse. Disclaimer: I live on a small island (Koh Samui) and here anyone can get away with calling themselves a web developer if they can follow a one-click cPanel Joomla install
yes Matt you are right, that graphic just tells me that I have job security,
Code your CSS correctly and it’ll work fine in I.E.
Ha.ha.ha!
Btw, The IE browser has crossed many drawbacks that it used to have – IE8 and IE9 are much much better and developer friendly, i think.
There is no IE9 yet… just the preview release which is not really indicative of the final release.
What kind of dev can’t get a layout to work with CSS ? A lazy one maybe?
The image itself is from 2006, so it’s not so relevant today, but damn funny.
Kinda true!

I quitted to verify how IE6 renders pages in 2006 when IE7 came out.
Now we have IE8 which renders properly definitive web standards (acid 3 test is a collection of undefined or incomplete standards – read: wishlist) so, people have to upgrade.
And we have plenty of browsers: firefox, opera, chrome, to mention the most famous.
While some some parts are very true, the fact that this guys says that a web developer tries using only CSS but has to give up and use tables shows how much he knows about actual web developing… If you have to resort to tables you are not allowed to call yourself a web developer.
