Internet Explore version required


Recommended Posts

Hi, 

What is the minimum Internet Explorer version required for <IE.au3> to work?  I've tested my script on Windows 8 running IE version 9 and it works fine.  I'm deploying my code onto the XP machine running IE version 6.0 and entered object error.

Many thanks

every version of ie can handle things diffrently and even site can be specificly made to change its code depending on users IE version, diffrent aproches or complitly diffrent source can emerge from that on your ie version, so errors are normal things.

For exampe i had errors on site that have diffrent object names tupes and ids when running under 3 diffrent configurtations "winxp ie8" 'win7 ie8' "win7 ie10". And thats normal.

So if you got error you gota correct your code for specific site configuration depending on ie version.

Edit: As for your google problem i hardly think someone have ie6 to test it :P

If possible, update the version of IE on that XP machine, IE6 is ancient and very insecure. 

If I posted any code, assume that code was written using the latest release version unless stated otherwise. Also, if it doesn't work on XP I can't help with that because I don't have access to XP, and I'm not going to.

Microsoft have even dropped support for it.

Why is it when the OP says they have a problem with some code and just need a code fix to move forward people start going off saying "upgrade IE"?

Did you ever stop to think that MAYBE the OP is powerless to upgrade IE for where he works it is what they use and for the moment he has to work with what he has? There are a bunch of businesses like this. Hell, up to last year we were still on IE6. I was powerless to make the upgrade for it was beyond my pay grade.

You may need to find a old version of IE.au3 (from a previous released version of AutoIt) to get what you need. It would require you to slice out from IE.au3 in the old AutoIt version the code you need.

Because if it's not a corporate computer, then that is the best advice to give.

Yes, I thought of this. But as the OP didn't say anything related to it being a company computer, I thought it the best advice to give at the time, it is one avenue to explore rather than downgrading the IE functions.

BTW, getObjById should work on any version of IE above 5.x.

as I already told different versions can reproduce different source depending on site owner needs for specific ie version or of need of IE itself, no one can guarantee that some site even if he upgrade to ie8 XP that it will be identical to ie9 on win7 but he might receive more help on topic coz most of users if they are still running XP have upgraded to it. As the OP know what to search on IE9 he now need to isolate his element for ie6 and make his script to take action accordingly to every different version if needed.

btw coz getObjById (that is document.getElementById In real life if im not mistakeing) is from first DOM it shud be from IE5.5 and above if im not wrong.
