A couple of weeks ago, I started adding code to my site telling users of the Internet Explorer version 5 and 6 should upgrade their browsers.
There has been a web campaign to ask our web site visitors to PLEASE update your browsers. Internet Explorer (IE) versions 5 and 6 cause us as web developer to essentially make separate sites just for IE 5 and 6 users. You can’t believe the problems this causes for me and my students.
IE 5 & 6 are holding us back from really improving the Web and creating a much better experience for you all. It is really frustrating.
If you are one of my many visitors who also works on your own web site, please add the code from ie6nomore.com that simply checks your user’s browser version and shows the following message to users browsing with IE 5, 6, or 7.
If you are using an outdated browser. Please use the links on the above message to update your browser. Then use an updated browser!

Hi from google Google-TCW
Great idea, Laura! This code certainly avoids a lot of headaches. But, where do you paste the code? On you main page? (By the way, I took your Dreamweaver 1 and 2 classes and enjoyed them a great deal.)
I pasted my code above my div#wrapper tag.
