Browser Compatibility - Opera rendering errors

Postby larsf » Thu Oct 02, 2003 11:30 am

A couple of my guys swears by the Opera browser.

They observe that many of the Track Studio pages are rendered wrong (or differently) in Opera (6.x, 7.x).

A couple of examples...

Subtasks view - Text and combo "subtask: # filtered subtasks: # combo go-btn" are positioned wrong (too far down).

User Management, User, Change Password - fields are not centered.

This may be something you would want to address? I know you officially only support MSIE 5.x - 6.x + Mozilla 1.1, but Opera is quite popular around techie enviroments.

Brgds,

Yes, I know. Early TrackStudio versions supports Opera, but in 2.0 we drop Opera support (2.8 even check browser and write error when logon). TrackStudio 2.0+ uses complex CSS styles (to implements skins, printable pages, etc) and details in processing CSS under Mozilla, IE and Opera is slight different, so its difficult to implement pages that looks fine under all the browsers. Worse, CSS processing differ in different versions of IE/NN/Opera. TrackStudio also uses complex JavaScript, this adds more problems with browsers.
