Hello guys!
I am fixing a project that an other corporation started to create, and the first problem that I heard is that people using any browser that is not internet explorer 5.5 or above, is having bad time trying to get in the system....
The project currently uses vb script, asp and java script and the data base is in access...
My question is Vb scritp only works with I.E 5.5 and above? Or works with lower versions and netscape, etc...?
Thanks guys!

Client-side VBscript is a Microsoft proprietary technology - it only works with IE, and probably only works correctly on Windows. You really should use official Javascript (ECMASCript compatible/W3C DOM, not MS Jscript)for client-side scripting, as that will work in almost all newer browsers.
The language you use on the server-side ASP or database shouldn't matter, BTW, its client side you need to worry about.
Really thanks for your information!
I will search for the official JavaScript...=-)
Thanks for your time...

I've seen the following in the Release Notes of IE9, regarding VBScript:
"HTCs / VBScript
HTML Components (HTC) and VBScript code when used inside of an IE9 standards mode page are no longer executed in compatibility view. Consequently, DOM APIs used by the HTC or VBScript code now behave according to the IE9 standards mode version of the same APIs."
Does it mean that VBScript won't be executed anymore?
