Asp.net and internet explorer 4.0

[Jan Timmer]

Hello,

One of our clients wants a web application. Several offices (worldwide
distributed) only have internet explorer 4.0.

Are we facing problems when we develop an ASP.NET application for them? And
if so, are they showstoppers or are there workarounds?

TIA,

Jan

You're only facing problems if you try to use HTML elements that are not
supported by that browser.

If you stick to the .NET controls, you should not have a problem. The main
gotchas with IE 4.0 are moving into heavy DHTML or working wtih XML in the
browser. I would still test everything with IE 4.0, which means setting up a
windows 98 box(?), but you should not have a lot of problems.

Work primarily with post back rather than trying to set up hierarchical data
grids, as you might end up with a gotcha here.

Hi Jan

On all Microsoft Operating systems, Microsoft® Internet
Explorer 5.01 or later are required.

This is minimum requirement.

Don't forget to the the project setting "Target schema"
under "Designer Defaults" to Netscape Navigator 4.0 to
ensure v4 browser level compatibility. Please note that
this doesn't stop you breaking compatibility, however,
the ASP.NET controls use this setting to guage what HTML
to generate.
