Browser Compatibility

[Chris Anderson]

It would be helpful if IPS listed which browsers they actively support (and let people now if they intend on deprecating a browser or version of a browser) with their platform and all third-party developers would be required to certify that their products are compatible with them prior to being listed in the marketplace.   If a marketplace app doesn't work with a particular IPS supported browser than it should be clearly stated in the product description.  This will allow customers to make an informed decision of whether or not the IPS platform and any marketplace apps a person may consider for purchase will meet their overall needs prior to purchase and not learn afterwards after they had made a nonrefundable purchase.

We support the latest two major releases "officially", but these days this has been less of a concern compared to say the IE6 vs IE7 vs IE8 days.

When you say "last two major releases", are you referring to browser releases or IPS releases?

If it's browser releases, then does that mean you support IE9 (current is IE11)? I thought IPS4 was IE11 only?

[bfarber]

The last two major browser releases. For IE, that would be Edge and IE11 at present.

Now, we don't go out of our way to break things in older browsers either, but if a bug is only present in IE9 at this point in time the solution is clear - upgrade your browser.
