We also fully support Project Spartan within Windows 10. No changes are necessary for Windows 8, 8.1 and 10 as the minimum version is Internet Explorer 10 which we fully support. Internet Explorer is a web browser developed by Microsoft and included as part of the Microsoft Windows line of operating systems, this will be the default web browser installed when you purchase a new computer running the Windows operating system.ĭepending on your operating system, there are multiple choices surrounding your browser. Less than 1% of web users are using Internet Explorer 7 and we feel that our time would be better suited towards targetting mobile devices in which more and more people are using to access our website. HTML5 supports mobile devices doesn’t rely on plug-ins and provides a faster customer experience. These browsers do not support the rich internet apps our customers have come to expect, including HTML5, which is the new industry standard and the technology we are investing in moving forward.
There have been multiple security vulnerabilities discovered in these older browsers over the years, so we are removing support for these browsers. Security is incredibly important to us at Liverpool Heart and Chest Hospital. Why are we ending support for Internet Explorer 7? If you are using Internet Explorer 7, the layout, functionality and features of the site may no longer work.īugs and performance issues that appear only within IE7 will not be investigated or fixed by the development team. Whether they improve these glitches or not, I'm moving to the main concourse of Mozilla.With the release of the new mobile optimised website, Liverpool Heart and Chest Hospital will no longer support Internet Explorer 7. This is not to mention the fact that some buttons on websites simply do not work on IE9 - when this happened with random links it's frustrating, when it occurs with Paypal, my Bank's website and the like it's frankly unbearable. It's more than a little frustrating that the top of the page or article gets shown and as you scroll down it all gets fudged out. I don't understand why they would let any version, beta or not, be released whereby such universal websites as Amazon, Wikipedia and Googlemaps DON'T LOAD PROPERLY. I 'upgraded' from IE8 to IE9 around a week ago and I've now reach my limit - I'm abandoning ship too. So, out of the kindness of my heart I have stuck by IE when all else haven jumped ship to Mozilla. Silly to call the Microsoft money-making power house an underdog, but it seems to be a fallen giant, and always got the flak for everything that goes wrong. I have always stuck by Microsoft because I tend to favour the underdog.
Watch out: the browser wars just got exciting again.īy Anonymous reviewed on November 13, 2010 In all, the latest version of Microsoft Internet Explorer 9 is faster and prettier than its predecessors - and really throws down the gauntlet to its competitors. New features like hang recovery and InPrivate Filtering provide Internet Explorer a stabler and more secure web experience than most other browsers. IE 9 features decent support for HTML 5 (the new generation of media-rich websites use this language), and now finishes the Acid 3 test with a near-perfect 95/100. Internet Explorer 9 also offers improved speed and performance, as well as better compliance with web standards and new technologies. The new Performance Advisor add-on identifies add-ons that are slowing Internet Explorer down (a feature badly needed in Mozilla Firefox). IE 9 also lets you 'pin' websites to the Superbar and allows you to bookmark your favorite websites as 'applications' in your OS. Among the new features included in Internet Explorer 9 are better integration with the Windows operating system and a seriously beefed-up security system.
