I agree with an earlier poster: that you should always design for the worst possible browser. As a designer of your website, if you want your website to be accessible, you should always design for the people with the browser that has the least features, display the most mistakes and what not. If it works in that sucky browser (which I feel, has to be Internet Explorer for MAC. It sucks even more than IE for windows, believe it or not), it should work for all the rest of the browsers.But really, ...

Because most of people use Windows And Default IE as webbrowser.
You appear to have forgotten my favorite browser, Safari. It is the browser packaged with Mac OS 10. It is the Apple company's first foray into the world of browser and in my opinion it is very well done. It is simple to use and very useful. There are still a few bugs being worked out, but that is only to be expected. Unfortunately you can only use it if you have a Mac.
Sorry Buddy,
I Included The Most Used Browsers and " Safari" is in still Primary Condition, Once we have a full matured version of safari with most of scripting support we will consider it. Sorry for Not including Your Fav Browser " Safari". Once Again we will Conduct a new Poll when Goole Releases its "Gbrowser" then we will compare all browsers. Cheers Arunkumar.H.G
my website is designed for firefox, after I adapt for IE because IE use many thing witch don't be the standard.
Moreover, firefox exist on windows, linux, ... so my website is compatible with many os!!!
I use Maxthon T-T but nowhere to vote...
Let's try http://www.maxthon.com excuse me. What's Ice? I haven't heard this before...
I would have to go for firefox, If you get it right on firefox just about everyone on the net can view your web pages.
I have come across many sites that have been built on made up code using IE and I dont even bother to switch browsers its just one less visit for them and I can find what I want elsewhere.
FireFox R0x(Rocks
 )it's Open Souce, the extenstions are many and useful, the handling of the page, with Html errors is better than IE, and pop-up, activex are controlled.. Then, On Linux..IE,...LOL
well, being that the original question is what browser do you web design for...i'd have to say IE. Majority of the population of online users still use Internet Explorer. I think web designers should always base a layout on the browser that is being used the most...
the browser i prefer, however, is mozilla firefox.
Im afraid I cannot vote any of those browsers because I use Netcaptor. It is a widely used browser. I have used firefox, but you cannot seem to get plugins for the websites as they dont have a site with plugins set up yet. Netcaptor has almost all of the things you have used, so far I have not seen transparency. The thing I truely like about netcaptor, is that the tabs are on the bottom of the browser, wheras all the others have it on the top. I think you can move your tabs to the top altho I prefer it at the bottom. They have both free, and paid versions of netcaptor.. www.netcaptor.com if you wish for more information

But really, design for standards, not for browsers. Go to W3 and get your site verified and checked, and THEN check it with the worst browser around. That way you can be pretty sure it'll work for all browsers in general. Designing for the best browser around makes little sense unless your site is only for those with the best browser. Like your site is a Firefox extension site, so you design for Firefox browsers only. EVEN SO, don't forget people move around. Someone using Firefox at home may not have the privilege of using it at his workplace or school, and if he needed to access your site, deisgned only for Firefox only, he'd be in trouble. That was an example only, no offence to Firefox users.
I use firefox and IE but... IE is universal, displays all sites fine(some really doesn't look so well on firefox). It's the most generic browser to use.
There are many different opinion , I am now want to give you the data information about the persentage of the people using which Browser :
February 2005 FireFox --------------20% Mozilla --------------4% Netscape 7-----------1.1% Opera ----------------2% IE 6 ------------------64.9% (information from http://www.w3schools.com/browsers/browsers_stats.asp)
if you ask the best for designing, i would say IE simply because it supports all latest plugins and more importantly most of your website's visitors will be using IE.
but just for browsing, i prefer firefoz.
The best broswer is firefox but the "standard browser" is internet explorer, simply because it has the largest number of users. You know the old saying "the customers always right".
