[kictanet] Why is KRA (Customs) Application is Hard-Wired Microsoft?

[Roland Omoresemi]

At the very least, most web applications should be supported on most popular browsers...especially a site belonging to a governmental entity with broader target audience.

Cross-browser testing can be completed within a reasonable amount of time and cost...we even have free tools out there that shoots out 66+ browser renditions of GUIs at the click of a button thereby allowing one to see what the user experience would be like depending on their browser + platform combo. 

As often as standards change, I can see where an organization might shoot to only support a browser type or platform, but again, from a design perspective, a simple css file (or something similar) can be used to drive behavior most importantly look and feel across multiple browser types.



Thank you,
