authentication w/ firefox

I think I already know the answer to this, but I'll ask anyways.

If I uncheck anonymous access and check Integrated Windows authentication
(an intranet webapp), is there anyway to not have the password dialog box
appear with Mozilla Firefox?

Never mind. It's seems this is an IE only thing.

Changing gears... why does ASP.NET think Firefox is a downlevel browser.
Is it? Will this be changed in ASP.NET 2.0?

That's probably because FireFox doesn't do everything that IE does.
Example, JavaScript function don't work the same. It doesn't have the same
capabilities. Another example: FireFox and Mozilla don't recognize pixels.
There is code you can put in the web.config file to make that work.
It might look like a pretty program but it doesn't have the capabilities
that IE has.

I am not up to date with 2.0 so I can't answer the other question.
I would like to know the answer to that question though. But I doubt it it
will change.

Because the default browser caps for ASP.NET are out of date and don't include the newer gecko based browsers; do a google for "browserCaps firefox" and you should find some newer browserCaps that will enable upload for firefox.

What do you mean by "JavaScript function don't work the same" and "FireFox
and Mozilla don't recognize pixels"?
