Question

Such as this one: http://www.webstandards.org/upgrade except it's just awful and is way out of date (use Netscape 7? really?)

I am going to require IE9+ and the latest versions of the rest of the browsers.

Thanks.

Was it helpful?

Solution

http://browsehappy.com/ is probably my favourite. I probably wouldn't redirect though. Maybe a popover/modal with the link in it? A little less militant.

OTHER TIPS

Redirecting the user when using your site to an upgrade page can be quite frustrating for the user (also, the number of users who actually upgrade from their favorite "old" browser is lower than we'd hope.)

I would suggest displaying a dialog urging him/her to upgrade to use the full site, while displaying a basic HTML-only (or scaled up mobile) site.

http://www.browser-update.org/ helps you display an unobtrusive notification, urging the user to upgrade.
