      I'm using some CSS3 features. Gradients, rounded corners and other things. But generally the more stable CSS3 features. I have a plugin in the works, which will require IE10 - it allows you to install plugins by dragging files into a webdialog window.

      IE has lost a lot of users - and Microsofts automatic updates are starting to make it's effect as well as they try hard to push users to keep IE up to date. I would only concern myself about anything older than IE9 if I really had a good reason - like if I made a commercial plugin where a significant amount of users has older systems.

        Gotcha. Well, I hope you one day can upgrade. Because there really isn't much I can do with IE6. But XP supports older IE versions than IE6, why not just let it update?
        It's 11 years old - time to let it die. Even Microsofts wants it gone: http://www.ie6countdown.com/

          Thanks for the info.
          I will have to rethink about my css support then. I think your philosophy is sound.

          And yeah! I had IE8 on my computer. And overnight "Badabing!" it became IE9.
          Just like that πŸ˜„

          Sorry sorry, back to the plugin discussion.

            I got crashes when using a font that existed on the Mac.
            BUT is the 'font-name' you pass from your tool the exact same name as the MAC reports?
            Or is that font perhaps in a fold-folder that Sketchup doesn't look-in, but your script does ?
            E.g. some user or xfonts thing ?

                    It may cause crashes later. I haven't used it that much.

                            Thomas, I played with it a little more on my Mac and the only thing I can find is the close button doesn't do anything. No biggie for me. I'm flexible and can close it with the X button at the top left.

                                Seems another friendly systems than IE exist for old computers or it's the same?

                                        XP still.

                                        I'm planning to build a new machine this spring and will move up but so far XP hasn't been a problem for me.

                                            At least not IE9. I haven't opened IE for several years so it hasn't been kept up to date even as far as it would go in XP.
