About this project

Compatibility testing

Use only the latest versions of your browser. This software uses JavaScript and has been designed to be the same for browsing-over-the-web and for browsing from your local file system. Browsing from your local file system can be much, much faster than browsing over the web.

The image browser has been tested with the following web browsers and found to work well:

When browsing, be sure to allow JavaScript and to allow pop-ups from the domain of the html files.

Google Chrome is inhibited from working on local files by Google's design choices. Google assigns a random domain name to each local file that is opened on your system (i.e., this happens whenever you see the "file:///" tag in the browser address bar). No modern browser allows cross-domain scripting, as a security measure. So JavaScript cannot operate between frames on local files, since Chrome has assigned each file to a different domain. (I have not found a work-around to this issue).

Obviously, there are many untested browser/OS pairs. There are currently no plans to fix incompatibilities for older browsers.
