Visitors to my site

[Edward Bernard]

The lovely visitor counter tells me that out of todays 59 visits, 30 of them
were from Australia. I don't know how they are finding the site. It's only
on the webring. And there aren't that many from Australia on the NG.

Oh and Rick....my visitor logs also tell me...that I have had a visitor
using a 1600*1200 resolution. Perhaps this person is someone who likes going
round the TT sites. It would be nice to know who it is. 84% of visitors are
using 800*600.

A surprising statistic, that only 1 visitor was using Netscape, and the
other 58 were either using IE4 or IE5.

Rick, or anyone in the know could they please tell me what the hell 'Your
own configuable domains' and 'Your own configureable referrers' are.

I am probably the one using 1600x1200.

I recently acquired TTDX and am addicted to it. Your site is pretty
cool, keep up the good work!

Shows how many people actually went and did something about Internet Exploder.

Some of you may wonder why I constantly bash IE. It's for a very good reason.
It's a terrible browser, at least in my opinion.

I've used Netscape ever since I discovered it...

Ah the riddle is solved Rick. How big is your monitor?

My site must look miniature at that res. I tried it looking at the highest
res possible with my monitor 1280*1024

Thanks for the compliment. Have you seen the floating HQ section yet?

Whats wrong with it?

I don't see any reason either

Netscape can't interpret many HTML tags and CSS elements, also it makes difficulties with javascript. I also hate it because it keeps crashing.
I even stopped surfing the web with Linux becaures there is no better browser for X11

For one thing, Netscape doesn't hog up memory like IE does. Number 2, mine
never crashes and never has, except when I played my one internet turn-based
game. Of course, I tried IE and it wouldn't run it at all. Number 3, Netscape
supports Quicktime. Number 4, if Netscape can't interpet many HTML tags, why
can I see blinking text, hmmmm? Number 5, Netscape let's you work offline so
you can load files from the cache. Number 6, if a website doesn't load with
Netscape, it simply comes up with a dialog box to click. IE comes up with this
frivolous screen that takes several seconds to load and asks you if you want to
know why the webpage wouldn't load. I don't care. And Number 7, the most
important one, if you are using Winblows 98 and Netscape crashes, it won't mess
up the system. It does (at least on mine) if you use IE.

There. Is that good enough?

Neither does IE5...
I have my virus checker running ALL the time Seti@home running ALL the time

Ah you have me there..I've never played an online game except Total
Annihilation....But Its still never fallen over......Even with all the file
running in background..

Number 3, Netscape supports Quicktime.

AFAIK so does IE5?

Number 4, if Netscape can't interpet many HTML tags, why
can I see blinking text, hmmmm?

Why would you want <BLINK> on your site anyway? Its just a little annoying
and it *could* be a problem for people with epilepsy

And another pain this not being able to set peramiters for the <HR>
(horisontal rule) In Netscape I can't set a colour.....Forcing me to have a
boring grey line or importing a picture......This then slows down the site
and takes up my webspace......

Number 5, Netscape let's you work offline so you can load files from the
cache.

So can IE5. You can set it to go and tell you when the site has changed and
THEN tell it to update.

Number 6, if a website doesn't load with Netscape, it simply comes up with
a dialog box to click. IE comes up with this
frivolous screen that takes several seconds to load and asks you if you
want to
know why the webpage wouldn't load. I don't care.

You may want to start loojing at that screen if you hold a web page.....It
tells you lots of info....If it comes up with a 404 error then the fault is
generally yours (the script) If its anything else the its possible a fault
with the server or something like that..
I for one would like to see WHAT has gone wrong with the page if it dosen't
come up..

And Number 7, the most important one, if you are using Winblows 98 and
Netscape crashes, it won't mess
up the system. It does (at least on mine) if you use IE.

Hmm...Never had a catastrophic event with IE4/5.....EVER........So I'm not
sure about that.....I think a few of the problems could be with you
setup.......BUT saying that If you prefer the interface or whatever then you
use it......Its YOUR choice.
BUT don't expect all Webmasters to set up sites that are Netscape
friendly......I believe that Netscape has a problem with <FRAMES>
tags......This is a REAL pain in the butt if your site is Frames heavy......

[Edward Bernard]

97% of the last 171 visits have been using IE in some form

Steve, your browser was classed as a 'Unknown Netscape Compatible'

63& are using Win 98 followed by 28% using Win 85

And there has been one visitor clicking the link from Ricks site to mine.
And 7 AOL users to the site.

Woooo.......(Again) How many clickthrought do you get from me?
All mine seem to be from searchengines and direct requests..

And 7 AOL users to the site.

Ha....Only 2......
Any Webmasters had a Web TV person yet?
Any HAVE Web TV?

I for one would like to know how my site looks.......I'm not sure what kind
of browser they use.....

I've often had problems with IE locking up when I tried to load several
programs at once. It only took about three other programs (AOL, Rollercoaster
Tycoon and The Drawing Board) before it crashed...

Number 2, mine never crashes and never has, except when I played my one

I've never played Total Annihlation.

Nope. IE5 tries to use the crappy Winblows Media Player.

I don't know why I'd want blink, but eventually I'll design a sight to show you
why, hmm?

So you've got a horizontal rule. A 4K Gif isn't going to make much of a
difference, really.

Number 5, Netscape let's you work offline so you can load files from the
cache.

So can IE5. You can set it to go and tell you when the site has changed and
THEN tell it to update.

Yes, but you can't specifically work off-line with it, can you? Whenever you
try to run it it'll start giving you 404 errors if there's no internet access
at the time.

Number 6, if a website doesn't load with Netscape, it simply comes up with
a dialog box to click. IE comes up with this
frivolous screen that takes several seconds to load and asks you if you
want to
know why the webpage wouldn't load. I don't care.

with the server or something like that..
I for one would like to see WHAT has gone wrong with the page if it dosen't
come up..

Yes, but I know what a 404 error is. I know that that means I probably uploaded
the file in caps or not in caps or something like that.

Of course, if it was another error I might look at it... but most of the time I
found it annoying.

And Number 7, the most important one, if you are using Winblows 98 and
Netscape crashes, it won't mess
up the system. It does (at least on mine) if you use IE.

I've never had problems with frames in Netscape.

Of course, I'm seeing less and less sites with frames now. More of them are
resorting to a more streamlined thing with no borders... like http://www.hotgames.com.
