Internet Explorer Currently Incompatible with Tethys Map View Gizmo

[Jacob Fullerton]

So with finishing my app I thought I'd share my work with some potential employers who are interested in my work with Tethys. However, when I sent them the link they informed me that my app does not work with Internet Explorer. I tested this and I found an error and I don't fully understand what is going on with it, but I thought I'd bring it to the forum and see if someone with more experience can maybe help out. The only reason it matters to this company is that they can only use IE because their corporate contract with the government only approves IE currently.

If the images don't come through the error is "Expected ':' " File: tethys_map_view.js, Line: 1775: Column:28

This is a known limitation of the Map View gizmo. Generally, I have not done much work in Tethys to ensure compatibility with IE or really any other web browser than Chrome. So, currently, there is a requirement/recommendation that they use Chrome. It is not uncommon for websites to make recommendations on browsers for best experience, but we may want to look into what it would take to better support IE.
