I'm creating an awards site and for some reason, whenever it's perfect in Firefox, it looks weird in IE and whenever it's perfect in IE, it's weird in Firefox.

I guess I COULD take the time and try to figure out how to make it the best in both worlds... or I could just see which browser most people use.

Firefox, IE, or other?

FIREFOX ALL THE WAY
for some reason, IE is a little slower, and when you Ctrl+F; its easier to search
plus the icon in the upper left corner is cooler ;]

In all reality, Internet Explorer is used more widely. However, Firefox is definitely getting up there.

Personally, I use Firefox.

I personally prefer using Firefox over Internet Explorer.

And haha, I got my friends to use it too. >< So yeah, like Arjuna said, firefox is definitely getting up there. Now I hear more about Mozilla than IE.

Firefox is much better. It's got built in accelerator plus the popup blocking is better than IE's and it's safer. Plus the new IE 7 got some loopholes in it, and doesn't work properly on all systems causing some of them to crash.

Fire Fox. It's so much better. Faster, safer, user friendly, completely customizable, oh so many add ons, etc. Fire Fox is simply amazing. I never use IE anymore. And for sites that don't show up in Fire Fox, you can download the IE tab add on which loads the site in IE through Fire Fox. It's pretty awesome if you make layouts.

I have dialup and the speed is worlds apart. IE takes like 30-40 seconds to load a site where as FF takes like 5 seconds for already visited sites and 10-15 seconds for any other site. Plus, the instant back button feature is amazing. When you press the back button, it doesn't have to reload the site all over again.

Firefox.

But neither display HTML nor CSS correctly/completely (according to the Acid2 test). Unless you're talking about Fx Gran Paradiso (3.0a1), but that's still an alpha release.
You should try it in Opera first and see how it comes out, because it's pretty much the only browser out there for Windows that's passed the Acid2 test.

Internet Explorer.

Most people don't like it because it doesn't have like protection and stuff. But I have a special antivirus for IE, so whatever.

Go IE6! _smile.gif

Firefox.

If some layouts won't load correctly, I just use my IE tab extension and things would go REALLY fine.

IE slows my computer...especially IE7 annoys me.

I used to use IE all the time but now I use Firefox too. I use them both about equally since a lot of sites I visit look weird in Firefox. I voted for IE though.

FIREFOX.

extensions and themes are lovely. It's faster. Has better tabbed browsing than IE7 (in my opinion)
