Title: Which browser is working in Mc12
Post by: thenoob1 on January 20, 2007, 10:34:38 am

Hi

my question is already in the Subject line.

Which browser is used: The standard br. or internet explorer.

So when I set firefox as the Standard browser ...... is it used then?

Have a nice day t.n.1

After having just switched to Firefox, I know it isn't used. I haven't been able to find a way for it to be used yet.

I'm not 100% clear on the question - but if it is what browser can used with MC, I know IE6, IE7, and FireFox 2 works.  I use FireFox 2 myself (99.7% of the time).

And that's not likely to change anytime soon. They use embedded controls in MC and IE is the easiest to support here.

I can't remember right now where it was, but I had done something that opened up IE externally and displayed a page. Since I have Firefox as my default browser, I was expecting the page to be displayed there. I just tried different places right now but can't find that spot right now, but if I come across it again, I'll post it. FWIW, I have no problem with MC using IE inside to display web pages, it's just when opening an external page.
