Subject:Probs with WYSIWYG for XSL Author:Helmut A. Neeb Date:31 Oct 2003 09:33 AM
Hi,
I have downloaded 5.0-127e for evaluation.
I want to make a static html-sheet more dynamic.
The problem is, that the WYSIWYG-window of the Style Sheet editor claims, that it needs MS IE 5.5 or newer.
But: I _have_ already IE5.5SP2 (german) with several service packs and hot fixes installed on Win2KSP2 (and several hot fixes). I am local administrator.

Yes, the list of requirement is out-dated in that respect.
IE6 does fix a large number of issues in the edit component, which is what
wysiwyg uses; at some point we had to choose if we wanted to degrade
functionality for all users because we had to support IE 5.5, or if IE6 was
mature enough to consider it as a requirement for the whole editing
functionality; we chose the latter.

That's strange; what we and others have experienced is exactly the opposite.

Only the XML-to-HTML WYSIWYG functionality is affected by this requirement;
if that's the only area you want to evaluate and if you have strong reasons
for not upgrading to IE6, then I can't do anything else than agreeing with you.
