Browser Independence

[Benedictum]

How do you write an aspnet browser-independent apps? I develop and browse
with IE but it looks differently with Opera or Firefox. Any suggestion?

Thanks,

[Mr. Arnold]

You don't use ASP.NET form or Web controls, you use Ajax Pro for .NET (free)
and you use HTML and JavaScript. That will make the application more browser
independent, because of the use of HTML and JavaScript. There is no Postback
event, and the Code Behind file is used to retrieve and save data to a
database, keep object state/persist, etc, etc, using proxies.

Hello Benedictum,

The first way is to make your html XHTML 1.1 compliant - use XHTML validators.
Then check how your JS code works in different browsers and fix it. The same
JS code may work unstable in browsers, due to object model differences in
FF/IE/Opera

I managed to make the pages work in three browsers just by plugging in the
browsercap directives in the web.config file. I still see differences (e.g.
rendering of gradients). This is usable and not as irritating as before.
