Supported Browsers

[R.Domingo]

Hello,

Is there any documentation available about which browsers are
supported by gwt 2.0 ?
If so, could you please inform me where to find it.

thnx,
Raymond

Bottom of page

"IE, Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Opera" I hope this is enough to amaze you.

http://code.google.com/webtoolkit/doc/latest/FAQ_GettingStarted.html#What_browsers_does_GWT_support?

Seems a bit out of date though, as I've heard that only the latest
Opera version was supported (which means Opera 10.x nowadays); and
Firefox 3.6 is obviously supported (I'm not sure unit tests are being
run in Firefox 3.6 though, but as long as it doesn't break compat'
with 3.5, it should work –and I haven't seen any bug report here apart
from the DevMode not working, which is a different story–)

Thank you all for replying!

My question was triggered about the news flash that google will stop
supporting IE6 and some other older browsers as described on:
http://googleenterprise.blogspot.com/2010/01/modern-browsers-for-modern-applications.html

But it seems this has no immediate impact on GWT (at this time...).

I know this was posted over a month ago, but I would like to revive
the thread. I'm writing a proposal and I'm suggesting using GWT to
implement the client's front end. I would like to be able to tell him
exactly which browsers are supported and which aren't and if possible
tell him exactly what market share of the browsers are supported.

I can't find this information anywhere. If I could just get the names
and versions I can calculate the market share myself.

This is the first job I've proposed using GWT on and I would really
like to get it, but just saying "all the popular browsers are
supported", probably isn't good enough.

Is there a list somewhere?

OK... so what do you need? A list of supported browsers with their
relevant market share?

IE6-8
FF2-3.6
Safari (not sure on versions)
Opera (latest)

But be aware of supported browsers.

With the same code:

In Firefox, I was debugging my clientside for 2 days and didn't get the error.
I tested the same in Chrome and it worked.
In IE, even the index page doesn't work.

It's only research code, of course, I would reconsider if comercial.

Here is a useful link which is kept reasonably up to date:
http://www.w3schools.com/browsers/browsers_stats.asp

My GWT site works all of these browsers except IE6, which gives me
some problems.

Hope this helps,

Right, so GWT supports multiple browsers.... what this means is:

1) Significant pain of cross-browser compatibility is eased
2) GWT doesn't prevent you from writing browser-specific code.
3) Regardless of number 1, you still need to know about cross-browser
issues, in order to avoid number 2
