Yup. Works fine on Firefox 2 though :-)

That's fine for the one or two percent that use Firefox! ;-)

Hi John,

It's currently about 15% and rising fast.

Last time I looked it was around 13-14%, and rising very rapidly. On my own website, it was around 25-30%, but then I changed ISP and lost the ability to be able to tell!

ZDnet reckon 20% across Europe as a whole, but only 11% in UK. Of course, the biggest model railway market in Europe is .de, and there Firefox has a 30% market share.
Opera has about 1% in .uk, rising to 5-10% in the Nordic countries, which figures.

And that report is 11 months old, so I'm sure the figures have risen again since.
So, John - you were saying? ;-)

LOL - I was saying it was a minority, although maybe a bigger minority than I thought.

My own feelings are that the Firefox percentage rise will slow down with the release of IE7 simply because IE7 has copied most of the best bits of Firefox, so many people won't change. http://www.msfirefox.com/ is mildly amusing!
Anyway, these days it's the minorities that seem to have more say in everything :-)

It must be close to saturation point now. I've been using IE for close on eight years and have no reason to change, and the same must be true of all the millions who purchase PCs with Windows pre-installed.

Can't argue with that!

For interest, I've included the browsers table from a web access log from one of our (British) products.
I'm afraid our records simply don't bear out the Firefox claims made in this group.
This report is for the complete month of October 2006. (#3 is revealed elsewhere in the report to be search engines)[The site is a subscription site and generally not indexed by Google etc...] Also of interest is that this data was collected before IE7 was pushed onto users through the critical update system. It's worthy of note that IE6 has held market share fantastically despite FireFox being 6 or so years newer.

No, and nor do my records. The last set of records I had showed that 25-30% of people using my website were using Mozilla-based browsers. That doesn't match the official records either, but in the other direction.
Now then, I wonder what that shows? That going by any one individual website proves absolutely bugger all. Perhaps our respective websites attract different types of modeller :-)
