Hi,
I just tested all the browsers I have for support of
document.documentElement.scrollLeft to determine how many pixels the
window has been scrolled to the right. I'm trying to determine if I
really need to go to all the trouble of feature detection for determine
page scroll amount of if the old browsers are old enough now just to
ignore them.
Below are the OS-browser combinations that worked in my test.
OS X 10.4
Safari 2.0.4
Opera 9.00
Firefox 1.5.0.6
OS X 10.3
Safari 1.3.2
Opera 9.00
Firefox 1.5.0.6
(Failed in Internet Explorer 5.2)
Windows XP
Internet Explorer 6.0.2600.000.xpclient.010817-1148
Firefox 1.5.0.6
Opera 9.01
IE 6 was released in August 2001 which is a long time ago so worrying
about IE 5 seems unnecessary for some kinds of web sites. And IE 5 on
OS X is a tiny fraction of people surfing the web.
Does anyone know which are the most recent browsers that would not
support document.documentElement.scrollLeft? Any mobile devices or are
they all running something based on Mozilla or Opera?
Thank you,
Peter
