FNB pulls the plug on Internet Explorer 8

FNB has announced that it will no longer support Microsoft Internet Explorer 8, and will begin phasing out the "old technology" in September.

The move to out IE8 is a lot quicker than IE6. Nothing on other browsers?

Well chrome is the second biggest browser and regularly updates itself without assistance so I imagine you never need to decommission support for it.

They should get rid of IE completely, not just 8. All companies should do this.

It's a rubbish browser and a nightmare for devs.

Odd plug in that FNB graphic. Could they not find anything closer to a SA plug in their MS clipart?

The new IE version does not even follow w3 standards anymore, you need to force it follow the standards
