From time to time, I am asked by customers, \u201cHow do I ensure that all web traffic goes to Internet Explorer?\u201d In fact, I was recently asked this question by someone trying to help a hospital. Now, I understand the scenario. In healthcare (as in many other industries), it\u2019s often the case that you\u2019re running with an extremely thin team. As a result, it can seem that using Internet Explorer be default for all situations is the \u201ceasy button\u201d because, well, most of your sites were designed for Internet Explorer, so\u2026just\u2026always use it, ok?<\/p>\n
In short, this seems like a deliberate decision to take on some technical debt. It\u2019s true that most organizations have some technical debt lying around. (For example, if you\u2019ve disabled User Account Control, require a 32-bit OS or 32-bit Office suite, or are paying for extended support for a legacy version of Java, you have some technical debt.) But this technical debt? Well, it\u2019s different.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
De ontwikkeling van de browser is lang geleden al gestopt en is\u00a0 Edge ge\u00efntroduceerd als nieuwe standaard browser. Jackson ziet wel dat veel bedrijven Internet Explorer nog steeds gebruiken. Het betreft vaak oudere, voor Internet Explorer ontwikkelde webapplicaties die nooit geupdate zijn naar gebruik voor Edge of andere moderne browsers.<\/p>\n
So, what really happened is that developer tools either added this in the skeleton code, or they didn\u2019t. Which meant, if your tool didn\u2019t add this in, you would get Internet Explorer 5 emulation (quirks mode) by default. Getting modern was opt-in because that was easier.<\/p>\n
Fast forward, as Internet Explorer standards mode supported more and more standards, we decided not to just update the mode we called standards mode because, when we did, we risked breaking applications written for an older interpretation of the standards. So, with Internet Explorer 8 (IE8), we added IE8 standards, but also kept Internet Explorer 7 (IE7) standards. That meant, for sites in the Internet zone, it would default to IE8 standards, but, for sites in the local intranet zone, it would default to IE7 standards.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Tegenwoordig zijn er nauwelijks nog ontwikkelaars die compatibiliteit met Internet Explorer meenemen in de testfase van de ontwikkeling van (web)apps. Vasthouden aan het gebruik van Internet Explorer als standaard webbrowser gaat er uiteindelijk toe leiden dat nieuwe apps niet meer gebruikt kunnen worden.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
