Tailslide -> Yet another colour scheme tool (10/3/2006 4:41:58)

There've been a few of these lately but I think the more the merrier personally -

Thanks Tail,

Isn't it great also to see a colour tool that says that "normal" vision is only seen by 85.5% of people, the rest have some form of colour blindness.

I wish there were similar tools that said what percentage of the population experienced no vision impairment, and the amount how can use a mouse.

Off topic, but along the same lines, did you know that only 32% of people are using IE6 at 1024x768.

Cool! Another tool to blame for wasting time when I should be creating stuff!

Well that's a heck of a lot of people going to get horizontal scroll bars with this latest site but will he listen? Nooooooo.

Nice find Tail. I personally think you can never have too many slidey colour things.

Did you know that 76.4% of statistics are made up on the spot?

(and I'm a trained researchy/statistics type person so I know clever stuff like that [;)])

Did you know that 82% of people will find this tool annoying 'cause it *won't* work in IE?

Seems to be just like what folks complain about IE for.

Anyone know if it'll work in IE 7? There is just a little script at the bottom of the page to comment out but I don't have IE 7 on my laptop here to look at it.



womble -> RE: Yet another colour scheme tool (10/3/2006 18:32:57)

Nope. I've got IE7 on mine and I've just tried it out. No go I'm afraid.

As people are always telling me it's a case of knowing your audience. This tool is aimed at website designers - I can't imagine that anyone calling themselves a professional website designer wouldn't have Firefox or Opera on their system.

And as we know, unfortunately there's clever stuff that you just can't do on IE6 plus from my limited knowledge of the subject IE and Gecko browsers use the DOM differently - so it would seem reasonable, given the audience of the site to give people the enhanced capabilities.

The site utilises Canvas which I don't think (at least originally) IE was able to cope with.

I have no problem with people making their own sites work only in X browser when it's not a site aimed at a wide general audience - it's their decision and they take the risk if they plan on making money from it. Building a widely aimed public site for a client that only works in a few browsers is silly. There's a difference.

I don't think it would work on IE7 as there's a blanket - if MSIE then "scr*w you" bit of Javascript in there.

I saw that too but grabbed the script and the .css and .js files and tried removing it (the 'deny' script) and no it didn't work then either. I was just curious as if IE 7 worked, 'cause the deny script didn't specify any versions, just IE.



Tailslide -> RE: Yet another colour scheme tool (10/4/2006 9:29:28)

I'm really on the edge of my knowledge but I think that IE deals with the DOM differently and therefore I think that to use Canvas properly you need a plugin for IE.
