Fully supported browsers (most recent major versions):
- Firefox
- Chrome
- Safari
- Internet Explorer
Full Support
All design must be 100% functional, and have as identical look-and-feel as possible, in the most recent major versions of Firefox, Chrome, Safari, and IE.
Full Functional Support
Design must be 100% functional, but can have slightly different appearance, in any version of Firefox/Chrome/Safari/IE released within the past 18 months. (In other words: it should work, even if it doesn't look identical.)
Partial Support
Design should be as functional as possible in any other browser and in any version of those "big four" released in the past 36 months, but don't sweat it if you can't get it, and don't bother testing it: we'll just fix any bugs that get reported after release.
Not Supported
We officially do not support any browser version more than 36 months old unless it is the most recent version of a browser that our stats show is responsible for 5% or more of our traffic; we may make a minimal effort to fix problems that render the site completely unusable in them, but we will not make more than a token effort.
