The scripts on this website may not NESSECARILY work with Internet Explorer!
There is some complex javascripting going on here, and IE does not always provide the power to complete the tasks. Also, it consumes time to debug script that fails in IE, but works perfectly well in Chrome, Safari or FireFox.
All the scripts / utilities on this page is made with speed and (for me) effectiveness in mind, not as services capable of running in any obscure environment. If it works for me, i'm happy. Due to heavy use of AJAX, PCRE in serverside PHP and javascript parsers, IE may behave unexpected, process the background applications unreasonable slow or not run the script at all. This is particularly the case with IE8 and below.
On top of that, the built in "Developers Tools" in IE works very poorly. They seems impressive, but not very much worth and crashes all the time. Its hard to figure out what exactly IE doesnt like, when its own debugger crashes (appearently, maybe, I dont know) when the problem occurs. I am not talking about simple javascript errors, but when code seems not to be executed, even though it is executed and steps through with success. I am trying to keep quality in the javascript by using the excellent JSLint Code Quality Tool
Use Chrome, Safari or fireFox
In that order. I strongly recommend Google Chrome as browser when using the utilities on this website, since it has the fastest javascript-engine and seems to be more efficient when running resource heavy javascripts. Safari is almost as fast and reliable as Chrome (on windows).
If you are using FireFox, and experience the "Warning: Unresponsive script"-message, just click continue.
This works in IE, Opera and Safari as well. For FireFox, if the warning repetitively appears, try enter about:config in
the address-field, find the dom.max_script_run_time and set it to a higher value.
Just recently i got aware of the i.exec bug which appears in FireFox 3.6.xx (Linux) when using jQuery. This is corrected everywhere I have detected it.
I am scripting for fun, for my own purposes, currently running Ubuntu 10.04 LTS - the Lucid Lynx on my laptop, using Google Chrome and gedit as programming platform. I do NOT necessarily adjust the utilities to work in Internet Explorer running on windows, and I do not care of any older version of any browser.
However, I am once in a while ensuring that my services runs in IE7/IE8/IE9 on Windows 7. If you have a bug report regarding browsers, or think that a browser/browser+platform should be supported - mail me.
