the only real good answer to this is to look at the stats for your particular site. if 60% of your audience is browsing with Mosaic 1.0 on VMS, you should probably code your stuff to work with that browser (ie, no css or http 1.1).
But how many people are willing to slog through a site that's virtually unreadable on their browser in the first place, to show you who is at your site and who isn't? What do you do if you're building from scratch?

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
