How much browser sniffing is done by the web console - specifically on the Node Management pages? Do you have any info on what browsers you've tested with?
Thanks,Justin
The fact that the node management section of the website works on 2 out of 3 of the browsers on this machine. I don't seem to have any config issues that would be causing things not to work, so I wanted to know if there was any browser specific stuff happening behind the scenes of the pages.
The browser doesn't do any browser sniffing except for where we've found errors. We build the web console following standards, but some browsers--IE 6, I'm looking at you!--don't follow standards very well. When we find something that doesn't work in a particular browser, we may fix it for a troublesome browser as a special case.
I use Mozilla Seamonkey as my primary browser and I can't seem to get the Node Management page to work on two separate computers. I get the page, but the + boxes don't show, and the check box functions don't work.
Just to be clear, we support Firefox 3, IE 6, and IE 7. We don't test against or support seamonkey or Opera. Nothing against those browsers, but part of how we keep the product affordable is by limiting support of various platforms to the most common versions.
I understand. I was just trying to get more info on the process involved. The part that kills me is that it works in Firefox 3, but not Seamonkey, which is Firefox's direct parent. In any case, thanks for the information.

Sorry, didn't mean to be rude. There are a lot of people who will read this thread, so I wanted to make sure no one walked away with the wrong idea about what we support.
The Seamonkey/Firefox thing is weird, but it's always possible that work was done on Firefox to smooth out issues.
