CROSS-BROWSER?MONDAY, APRIL 16 2007 @ 10:01 AMWow, this is bad... after reading that Microsoft was releasing a "cross-browser, cross-platform plug-in for delivering the next generation of media experiences and rich interactive applications (RIAs) for the Web." (which turned out to be just a re-packaginf of WPF/E), I wondered since when Microsoft cared about making anything cross-platform or cross-browser compatible.
So, still in disbelief, I just clicked away to the Silverlight homepage to see for myself. However, when I "clicked to watch the video", nothing happened... of course! I use Firefox. It appears that for Microsoft, "cross-browser" means their browsers. So sad Microsoft...

Of course that is M$ strategy take a good thing and copy it...although, on the brighter side, i'd rather someone copy a good idea than a bad one. its too bad they always splinter off instead of helping.

Note that cross-platform also means XP SP2 _and_ Vista ;-) |
