Elements doesn't support CMYK, that's the reason. Yes, you can use Photoshop CC.

Actually they do, all of them have a functioning color management engine. Even Internet Explorer.

The problem is that it's poorly implemented in most browsers, to the point where it can be considered broken. And the fact that many websites are coded so that they strip any embedded profile, and the fact that many images are posted without an embedded profile. This is what the browsers can't handle - except Firefox.

And for this reason, web material should be sRGB because that will display roughly right even without functional color management.

I love how you stressed IE as if it is extraordinary that it actually works.   It's a good job Noel isn't still posting, or the two of you would be going off on one all over again!   It was the dreadful way the forum software worked with IE (Noel's favourite browser) that caused Noel to leave the forum.
