Um, is there some reason you aren't using the same browser in development
that they'll be using in production?  If not, you're just opening yourself
up for a world of hurt.  I would think it would be difficult to explain to
your boss why you have to do some emergency bug-fixing at the 11th hour
because you didn't test with the same browser that you *knew* they'd be
using in production.

Don't get me wrong, I use FF for all my development, but as soon as I finish
a feature the first thing I do is make sure it works correctly on IE.
There's just no excuse for not supporting the browser that dominates the
market (even if you have to use hacks or exceptions).

| At any rate, you should try to avoid anything that's not a W3C standard.

Yeah, so stay away from Mozilla's little shortcuts like using
document.getElementsByTagName('tag')['name'] (gEBTN() is defined to return a
NodeList, not a NamedNodeMap).  And be sure to avoid appending a new row to
a table by just blithely calling
tbl.appendChild(document.createElement(tr)) -- even through Mozilla
accepts it and does what you might expect, it's wrong (that code will append
a new child to the *table*, so it'll be treated as a second table body, so
it won't show up)  So use the W3C standard of
tbl.lastChild.appendChild(document.createElement(tr)), like IE enforces.

Sorry, I just get a little twitchy when people start mooning over Mozilla's
W3C compliance.  Sure, it's pretty compliant, and yes IE is a festering
cesspool, but don't get suckered into the Well, it works on Mozilla/FF/NS,
so it *must* be W3C compliant... trap.  Every browser has it's little
departures from the spec, keep your eyes open and test with every (version
of every) browser you can get your hands on.

That may be true but to ignore the behavior differences especially when the
target audience is using something other than you are is poor practice. One
way to avoid most problems is to stay away from browser specific features
and rely on standard markups and extensions as much as possible. You'll be
looked upon with much more favor if you test in the most popular browsers
and ensure they work and look good than if you start putting requirements on
what browser the end user must use.

That's rather like saying Windows developers aren't supposed to be
supporting Vista *and* XP!! or Linux developers aren't supposed to be
supporting different distros!!  Your code runs on a browser.  It's your
operating environment.  Operating environments vary.  The web
developer's job is to support the operating environments as requested by
their (in-house or external) clients.  The web developers who don't do
this, ultimately, leave the market.  Sometimes they even do it
voluntarily.

It looks like everyone on the list got into a who 'creates' HTML
argument... I'm assuming that you were talking about using javascript
to generate content on the fly and insert it into a document.

If you stay away from the innerHTML attribute (which only works in
MSIE, so you're probably not using it) and instead use the methods
Document.createElement and node.add and node.insert, then you'll be fine.

Users of browsers like NN 4, MSIE 4, and some others might be left out
in the cold. My advice on that is to make sure that you are only using
javascript as added flavor, and to ensure that a non-javascript user can
still accomplish everything (even if it is a bit less convenient).

Sorry if I missed the point and you weren't asking about
javascript-generated markup. ;)

This is false.  innerHTML is supported by most current browsers.  Try 
this, just click the button:


htmlheadtitle/title/headbody
div id=divTest/div
input type=button
  onClick=document.getElementById('divTest').innerHTML='It works';
/body/html

Works in IE, FF and Opera at least, I don't have a Mac to try in Safari 
but I'd bet it works just fine.  I can't testify as to what the minimum 
version of each browser that supports it is... I don't think it's 
exactly new for FF or Opera though, I suspect you'd find the above works 
in FF 1.0 though, and Opera back probably a few versions too.


You would be correct to say innerHTML is not a standard (other than de 
facto perhaps), but to say it doesn't work in anything but IE is just 
not correct.

That's true about older browsers being left out in the cold, but at some 
point I think it's perfectly legitimate to stop supporting older 
versions.  I don't think it's an egregiously bad move to not support 4.x 
browsers at this point.  I think it's telling that a Google search for 
browser statistics, and then checking out the results on the first 
page, most of the statistics lists don't even mention anything older 
than 5.x browsers, and those that do show sub-1% usage levels.  So, I 
for one am not losing any sleep by not supporting anything older than 
5.x browsers :)

Oh, hey... look at that. I didn't realize that innerHTML was one of the
concessions that the Mozilla folks made when attempting to strictly
adhere to W3C standards.

At some point in the development of Mozilla, the team decided that they
would die if they didn't support some of the tag soup that MSIE has
allowed to fester on the web. Perhaps this was one of the things that
they decided to support.

At any rate, you should try to avoid anything that's not a W3C standard.

 Works in IE, FF and Opera at least, I don't have a Mac to try in Safari
 but I'd bet it works just fine.  I can't testify as to what the minimum

ff isn't that old; Mozilla is much older than that. W3Schools lists this
table for the innerHTML property:

PropertyIE  F   O   W3C
innerHTML   4   1   9   No

So, Opera recently added support, and MSIE and FF have had it from the
very beginning (yeah, MSIE 2 and 3 existed before that, but nobody used
them). No word on Mozilla itself, but it was far enough back that it
shouldn't matter these days.

No question. All my apps from the last few years use reasonably recent
standards such as CSS and XHTML. Most old browsers render XHTML just
fine, and sadly CSS isn't perfect across compliant browsers even
today. But if you're using NN 4, it's just time to upgrade, dude ;)

The HTML is in the JSP file, it's not created by Tomcat. It's up to the JSP
programmer to ensure that the HTML and logic in the JSP file are correct.

Taglibs such as JSTL can generate HTML, but that's not part of Tomcat
itself.

Re: Standards Complaint Browser Campaign

Pierre,

jsp is compiled by tomcat into servlets. Tomcat then calls the servlet
to service an incoming requests.

The html that's embedded into the jsp pages is sent to the client as
its is shown, along with any you are generating.

Usually when people ask 'will it work in this browser' they are
referring to different browsers interpreting the html, css standards
differently. Or in the case of Microsoft just doing what they feel ;)
The root of this thread is talking about this.


I hope this makes some sense.

 Um your joking right?

 Tomcat dosent actually create any of the html, thats up to your
 servlets/jsp.

 Unless you mean the Tomcat manager webapp. I havent had any problems
 with it and have used a few different browsers to acces it.

Yes, of course : Tomcat just processes the Java code, not the HTML. Little
but important shade of meaning...

Thank you !
