I got a problem with this code, when i try to compress my js file, as you have to keep this part before compressing your js file

/*@cc_on
@if (@_jscript_version>= 5)
try {
xmlhttp = new ActiveXObject(“Msxml2.XMLHTTP”);
} catch (e) {
try {
xmlhttp = new ActiveXObject(“Microsoft.XMLHTTP”);
} catch (E) {
xmlhttp = false;
}
}
@else
xmlhttp = false;
@end @*/

just a follow up for the code above.

i think the ie7 is more widespread after the release of vista in january 2007. most users that have an pc which is bought in 2006 can upgrade to vista smoothly, ’cause most driver will be availble till mai 2007 i think. my notebook is from the end of 2005 (acer 8104). most driver will work without downloading anything from acer and sure i will upgrade since i develop also software on new technics.

cheers, murphy

There are reasons to worry about it now. Imagine an IE7 Ajax implementation that submits a credit card order. Do you want that to be submitted over and over again without knowing about it?? See Brent's writeup on how IE7 behaves if the ActiveX control is used. As for chenggn's comment, some of the libraries did not try to instantiate the native object first. Of the few I've checked they are doing it right now.

if (!window.XMLHttpRequest) {
window.XMLHttpRequest = function() {
return new ActiveXObject(“Microsoft.XMLHTTP”);
};
}

why not just simplely adopt a library , prototype.js for example ?

forgot those trivial tricks, the life will be much easy

This has been covered like, a bajillion times, besides everything i see has
if (typeof XmlHttpRequest == “undefined”)
first anyway.

yes, I said bajillion

Yeah I don’t really think IE7 will be widespread until 2008 anyways. Sure Vista is due to be released sometime in 2007, I say sometime because who knows if it will make its current date. But even after its released not everyone will jump at it and go buy a new PC, that will take a few months to a few years.

So while it might be a good idea to prepare for IE7 I would’nt stress over it, lets wait until the night before in true procrastinat…I mean in the programmer fassion.

Only problem is that we’re not going to see IE7 widespread for some time now.
