What is Free the Foxes?

Comments are working again!

It is essential to have your users operate a browser that supports an appropriate standard on how things are displayed and how things function. Free the Foxes is FREE and is roughly only 25K in size (including JS, CSS and images) and is almost completely customizable.

Free the Foxes is a script you add to the bottom (before the closing body tag) of your webpage.  When a user who visits your site is not using an appropriate browser, he then is displayed a popup that suggests downloading and operating another more appropriate browser.

To see this in action, click the “Check” link below or within the footer of this site.

    However it’d have been good to also have translated download URLs, when the language is different than English ;)
