VML supported ? (Or better still, supported ?) - renodin

Wednesday, March 05, 2008 5:52 PM

I just ran a quick test with the excanvas library (excanvas.google.com), and
it doesn't appear to work in IE8, but does work (sortof) in IE7 mode.

1. Does IE8 beta 1 support VML ?
2. If not, does it support <canvas> ?
3. If not, does it provide native SVG support ?

VML supported ? (Or better still, supported ?) - renodin

Doh...I just tried another page with a canvas popup and it works fine in
both IE7 and IE8 mode. I'll have to verify if there's any issue with the
drawImage() implementation that breaks the first page I tried.

But I'd still like to hear a clarification of the drawing support in IE8
(for those of us who use crayons to develop websites 8^)

VML supported ? (Or better still, supported ?) - apostolos.tsakpini

VML support is broken, as you view on the following test case:

http://www.zdimensions.gr/apostolos/ie8/080305.VML-support.html

( works fine in IE7, IE6 )

Namespace support in IE8 is improved, so that may explain why the above
doesn't work ( see Improved_Namespace_Support.pdf ). Though, we need to know
what causes the lack of VML support. Is it because the hooks for the
namespace are not in place yet ? Or is it because the proprietary CSS
behavior attribute is no longer supported ? I hope we don't need to install
an additional addon for VML since so many companies depend on it.

As for Canvas and native SVG support, as you can see on the following urls,
are not supported.
