At Tribute Media we decided to stop supporting IE 6 when IE 8 came out of Beta.

Some of our clients agreed to use the Seven Up module to encourage their users to upgrade to a newer version of IE. Others don't want anything as obtrusive.

When we heard about ie6update.com we decided to create a module to integrate it so we can unobtrusively encourage site users to upgrade.

Features:

  • mimics the IE information bar to suggest to the user to upgrade their browser.
  • links to the IE 8 update page so the user can upgrade their browser
  • the message in the information bar is configurable
  • the page linked to from the information bar is configurable

For a discussion on what separates this module from others like it.

Thanks to mlsamuelson for pointing me to ie6update.com.
