Website Browser FAQs

Will my site work in unsupported browsers?

Your site should work in all browsers if they use compliant HTML, CSS and Javascript rendering. However other browsers may have inconsistencies that we are not able to account for.

Will my older website work in new browsers?

Older sites should work perfectly in newer browsers as generally newer browsers are backwards compatible.However some technologies like Adobe Flash are being removed for security reasons. If you still have Flash on your website please contact us so we can replace this with a non-flash animation.

What if I'm using Internet Explorer

We strongly suggest switching to Microsoft Edge which is the default browser for windows. Microsoft stopped support for IE back in 2016 and it is no longer considered a major browser.

Our websites will continue to work in IE but may have some reduced functionality that by fixing, would break the site in the more popular Chrome, Edge, Safari and Firefox browsers.

If you specifically require support for IE please talk to our Support Team on 01243 913 913 or support@toolkit.uk and we can dicuss the best option for you.

Can I get my own browser data?

Yes if you use Google Analytics you will be able to view browser data specific to every visitor on your own website.

Please see our setup guide for Google Analytics here

Can you support every browser?

Every browser is different, and has their own inconsistencies.

If we were to support every browser, we would have to spend an infinite amount of time testing each website and your web design costs would have to increase substantially.

If there is a browser that is essential to your site the let us know and we can quote for custom browser testing.
