   One of the reasons I gave up with Barclays Bank share dealing service.   
   "Update your browser"....   
      
   It worked on an ancient firefox in an XP virtual machine though.   
      
   There is I suspect something that uses javascript to interrogate the   
   operating system to find out what platform you are running that goes   
   something like this   
      
   switch (detected OS)   
     case Windersl...blah   
     case OSx...blah   
     case IOS...blah   
     case android ...blah   
     default, "update your browser" and fuck off.   
      
   And, since these days all websites are written using someone else's   
   toolset, and in javascript. the numpties who put it together have no   
   idea how to fix it anyway,.
