 ===== Internet Explorer =====
-Even though recent Internet Explorer versions became better and better they still lack a lot of features other browsers already support. With the introduction of the Google Chrome browser, the speed of browser development changed dramatically. Chrome and Firefox are now automatically updated about every few months, while Microsoft still needs years to release new versions of Internet Explorer. **If you have a choice, do not use Internet Explorer**.
+Just like Microsoft, we no longer support Internet Explorer.
-If you don't have a choice, you can still install Chrome without admin rights, or you can use any [[http://portableapps.com/apps/internet|portable version of supported browsers]].
-DokuWiki developers take care to make DokuWiki **usable** in Internet Explorer 8 or higher. But not all features may be available in IE. Certain design elements (eg. rounded corners) or advanced functionally (like drag'n'drop uploading multiple files) may be missing when using Internet Explorer.
+===== Safari =====
-We ask all company **IT administrators: please provide your users with alternative browsers**. Giving users better tools, allows them to do their jobs better. Having a modern browser is an important part of the modern workplace. And yes, there are ways for automatic, unattended setup of eg. [[http://www.mozilla.org/|Firefox]].
+In the last years Safari has become the worst browser to develop for. Proper testing needs access to super expensive hardware and Apple is very slow in implementing new web standards. Safari also tends to have weird bugs in rendering certain things. DokuWiki should work fine in Safari, but some smaller things or some plugins may have problems.
