"One in 10 UK websites fail to work properly on the open source Firefox web browser, a study shows...
Websites that proved difficult for Firefox users to navigate included the government website Jobcentreplus.gov.uk"
I've been a webmaster eight years now and one of the first things I learned is: Cross-browser testing is just good manners. In fact, it's the only reason I even allow Internet Explorer on my new machine.
It's especially bad for a government site, which should be as accomodating for as many different types of users as possible. I wonder how a survey of site accessibility for persons with disabilities would turn out.
