10% of websites are not compatible with open source browser images 1 Firefox ended in 2005 with nearly 10% of the browser market share, but many users will feel uncomfortable because every 10 sites has a site that does not work fully on this browser.

The survey by UK research firm SciVisum is based on the top 100 sites in the country. 3% of sites recommend that people use Microsoft Internet Explorer as Odeon Cinemas and Jobcentreplus pages, while another 7% only works on code compatible with Explorer, such as British American Tobacco and Lloyds TSB.

" Unexpectedly, after many years, users still encounter sites that do not support their favorite browser or suggest Internet Explorer suggestions," commented Deri Jones, CEO of SciVisum.

In addition, many websites have implemented strict policies like PowerHouse officially block Firefox users and English Heritage initially forced them to view pages without graphics.

Firefox has grown from 4.64% market share in early 2005 to nearly 10% last year. Meanwhile, Internet Explorer dropped from 90.31% to 85.05%.
