Colours in training

There are three different views on training depending on browser. It would be nice if the training window would look in Opera and Firefox like in IE.

Sjarel said once that this has nothing to do with SP. Only if Firefox changes its 'code' it would be possible to get the same view as in IE.

Always have umpteen problems with the three the few times I've been dragged into helping with a site. (I'd just ignore opera with it's relatively small uderbase but I tend to use it a lot myself) switched back to IE for SP as it helps a lot with training.
At least there are no major problems.

I am not sure if I am able to make authors of Firefox to change code to display "correctly" Sjarel's pages. May be it would be easier to persuade Sjarel to make pages viewable equally in IE and FF.

I think that is the problem. If Sjarel makes this code working for FF, it won't work anymore in IE.
But I don't know anything of that stuff, so I'll let Sjarel do the talking.

This feature is not available in Opera (which I use myself), but I still felt I could make it available for those who use another browser.

I read somewhere that opera is infact the most preferred browser in Europe! So I don't know how it has a small 'uderbase' as you put it.
Sjarel is right though it's all to do with how Firefox renders it's code. Nothing to do with Sp.

The internet stats are a whole are something like 85% IE, 11/12% FF/netscape based and the rest of the share to others (generally about 2% Opera). Though on internet game based sites the IE share is probably a bit lower. (I recall being on a forum where it was about 70% but Opera remained at about 3%, with FF taking most of the rest)

Sounds like a wording issue, perhaps they gave a smaple a few broswers to try and they "preferred" opera, can make things sound however you want with a little creative writing.

Pretty sure I read an article on Znet or some such for those figures...

0.77% for Opera, 0.39% in the UK even!
