Monetizing/making 2+2 better

The last time we visited the collapsible menu idea we felt restricted to not do anything that would not work for the vast majority (all but a very few) people who visit the forums. There are browser issues with almost all collapsible menu schemes.

The point is that it's not just a simple decision to install new technology there are many factors to consider. (Gee, I hope the IT guys I work with don't catch me saying that!)

I'm curious: how many people here use a version of IE prior to 6.0? How many people would not want the site to be dependent upon Javascript (for example)? Etc. I could turn this into a poll or, better yet, a survey, but I'd rather do that when I understand the complete set of questions to be asked.

First, having some experience in this area, I think its safe to say that while there are certainly many factors to consider, a competent IT web Programmer can code around compatibility issues.

Second, as to user profiling, don't you have that info available to you from Google Analytics? (if not, you certainly could load up another webstat program for a few days to gather that info pretty quickly)

Third, I'm sure you are already aware that javascript is utilized for current functionality in the forums.
