Overview

The only requirement is that users of IntraWeb developed applications have browsers that are HTML 4 compatible *, since extensive use of HTML 4 and JavaScript are made. IntraWeb has been extensively tested with Netscape and Internet Explorer and is supported with Mozilla, Firefox, Opera, Netscape 7 and higher and Internet Explorer 5.0 and higher.

NOTE: If you want Netscape 4 support you should use IntraWeb version 4. Which we will continue to maintain and support. As of version 5.1, IntraWeb supports HTML 3.2 in PDA version. Therefore, Netscape 4 is supported to a certain extent (i.e., no use of CSS or JavaScript).

HTML 4

IntraWeb uses HTML 4 and style sheets to achieve the coordinate placement of items and other features. Usage of templates or page mode can eliminate the need for style sheets.

JavaScript

JavaScript is used to allow many advanced client features. JavaScript also allows IntraWeb to control the browser and rendered pages. JavaScript is only required for Application Mode.

PDA (HTML 3.2) support

IntraWeb now provides PDA support. Based on HTML 3.2, 3.2 mode allows you to develop applications that are compatible with most PDA devices. 3.2 mode does NOT require JavaScript or CSS, making it entirely compatible with any device that supports HTML 3.2. Please note that to use 3.2 you are restricted to the 3.2 controls that appear on the palette. Most of these controls are the same as the standard IW controls, however due to HTML 3.2 restrictions and the lack of JavaScript, they offer in some cases less functionality than their standard counter-part.
