barnesandnoble.com has no love for Firefox

by Adam on November 23, 2007

barnes & noble has no love for firefoxI had assumed that we lived in a day and age where companies realized that Internet Explorer isn’t the only browser people are using. Apparently, I was wrong. Every single time I tried a search or clicked on any link on the Barnes & Noble site I was greeted with a blank page (except for the header) in Firefox, preforming the same search in Internet Explorer worked without a hitch. It’s a sad day when I have to go to Internet Explorer to access a site…


Dear Barnes & Noble,

I have browsed your site using Firefox in the past without issue, but today when trying to preform a search on your site for a book (or clicking on any link) all I received was a blank page (minus the header graphic). I tried clearing the cache in Firefox and refreshing the page, but your site continued to pee on my book browsing fun fire. I opened Internet Explorer (7) and your site worked without incident. I understand that this is likely due to some recent update to your site (I see you already have the Christmas decorations out) but you should realize that there are a lot of us out here (36.0%) that use Firefox which isn’t some willy-nilly, fly by night browser but rather a well established (36.0%) alternative to Internet Explorer. You should be testing your site to insure that it works with Firefox as well as Internet Explorer (testing compatibility in other browsers is a good idea as well).

The Borders website works just fine in Firefox - they got my money.

Sincerely,
Adam
