Java Forum / General / September 2006Ajax Compatability Question
compatibility be? I been scared to include a lot of Javascript into my sites because I wasn't sure how many people would allow it, but it seems most major companies are using Javascript for at least form checking and alerts now a days. My traffic ratios are 62% IE6 1% IE7 0.4% IE 5.5 31.3% Firefox, mostly 1.0.7 and above 0.2% Netscape, 5.2 and 7.0 each taking equal amounts 0.9% Safari 2.6% unknown the rest are small portions of each Please let me know because I would really like to add dynamic adding/removing of content via AJAX is like 95%+ of the world will support it. I do not however want to loose customers because they can not use my site, just to make it more appealing. Anthony F Greco www.ChillAxen.com > compatibility be?

Are most browsers from the last 3 years compatibile on the default security settings? > Use JavaServer Faces(JSF) and Ajax for JavaServer Faces library and you > will never write JavaScript nor XML.

Your answer is 'no'. >....Are most browsers from the last 3 years compatibile > on the default security settings? Perhaps the questions you should be asking first are.. a) are most browsers, with which your potential customers are visiting your site, even at the 'default' setting. b) if not, are they even in a position to change that? (internet cafe, library, work-place..) (hiwa) > > Use JavaServer Faces(JSF) Of course, using a pure HTML interface(?) will give you access to a wider range of potential clients, though even then, you'll find someone using an old (old) browser that crashes when simple styles are used! Andrew T. > I mind top-posting a huge bit. > Please refrain from it in future. What the heck is top-posting? Top-posting is responding to a post by typing the response at the very top. If you know what I mean... This is a top-post. >> I mind top-posting a huge bit. >> Please refrain from it in future. > > What the heck is top-posting? > I don't mind writing Javascript one bit. My question is will my users > be able to use it? Are most browsers from the last 3 years compatibile > on the default security settings? Then, go ahead on your own. I don't want to know such low level details for variety of browser products. Standard library like Ajax for JSF might have made your life easier, though. > compatibility be?

But JS support does not imply that your Ajax will always work. http://www.musingsfrommars.org/2006/03/ajax-dhtml-library-scorecard.html http://www.musingsfrommars.org/2006/06/howre-we-doing-now-ajax-browsers.html I will (as other have) recommend an Ajax library of some kind.
