Hi All,
I have just started the "Flex-Box Layout" module.
I aware this can only be used on the latest browsers.
However, If i create my website with the majority of flex box, how would older versions be able to view my website? What would I need to do in order for all browsers to view this.
Thanks Lee

There's 93% support out there including prefixed support.
You can use browser vendor prefixes even today to include support on earlier browsers but bear in mind -webkit- is currently the only supported browser prefix.
display: -webkit-flexbox;
