Your menu bar on the left side of the website... Doesn't work in Firefox or Mozilla. The little arrows don't appear either. Don't know what you did, but I haven't seen any other sites yet that fail to display correctly in Firefox, let alone both Firefox and Mozilla, so... It works in IE, and in Opera. Haven't tried any other browsers, though I imagine there's no way it'd work in Lynx, not that you care. :P

By the way... I'm curious. Why didn't you just use ordinary links?

Great Website Now! Except i have to use ie explorer to look at site other than that keep up good work

[Philantrop]

Yes, Konqueror can't display it either. Mozilla fails, too. That's sad.

You obviously didn't read what these folks were saying. The home page (http://www.runuo.com/) looks like crap in netscape (I verified this one), mozilla, Konqueror, Firefox and a few others.

There are simply too many internet explorer specific extensions used on the main page.

It works with IE not with the others.

It's a conspericy I tell you!!!!

Serriously though, it is probably because what they want to do was only possible with IE code. Be that because that is the way it is, or other, I don't know.

From what I can see, they want to do a check on your machine to see if you have .Net installed. Through an ActiveX call you can make this check. I see this a potentially good thing to keep down some of the redundant questions seen in the forums.

For those of you who don't know ActiveX is a Windows/IE thing. No other browser supports ActiveX, at least reliably.

Why they are making the entire site IE only, and not that specific page is beyond me. Quite a strange way of approaching it.

A request to the admins:
Please make the site at least usable in other browsers.

[XxSP1DERxX]

Make the site degrade well with other browsers, is a better way to say it. Or, provide a text based menu in addition to the IE specific one. Maybe ryan is conspiring to force everyone to use IE

[Philantrop]

Not to speak of the fact that ActiveX will fail even on IE if you have it disabled for security reasons.

The easy way would be to check to see if they're using IE using some simple PHP code, and if not, use real links in the menu.
