Joomlashack Suport for IE6 to End Dec 14th

- Published: 23 November 2009 23 November 2009
Mark your calendars, it's official, Joomlashack will stop supporting Internet Explorer 6 as of December 14th, 2009.
With the coming of the new year and many Joomla template providers agreeing that support for IE6 should officially end, we've decided to make the leap a bit early.
The move to stop supporting IE6 is not limited to Joomla template developers alone, in fact it's got quite a large following from web developers as a whole. Just do a Google search for 'no more IE6' and you will be treated with a list of articles, and even whole websites, dedicated to ending the life of IE6, or at least stopping the support of it.
