    AJAX on VB Browser

    Dear all,

    I dont know whether this is the right place to express my doubt.

    I would like to know how to enable AJAX on my own Web Browser. When I acess some sites such as rediffmail.com through my browser. I displays a msg box with vbExclamation saying "Your Browser is not AJAX Enabled" How to enable it. I am using MS Internet Controls 6.0 and VB 6.0.

    Help me as quick as possible Please.

    Rgds,

    Oasa

    Re: AJAX on VB Browser

    AJAX is not a single technology or thing to be enabled as itself. It is just a term to call several different technologies together. The end result would be more or less a web application that can be used like a normal desktop application, ie. page doesn't need to be reloaded all the time, but data is still transferred between browser and the server.

    Technologies related to AJAX:
    • JavaScript for functionality
    • XHTML for structure, CSS for styling
    • XMLHTTP for transferring the data between browser and server
    • XML for often being the format of the data



    So, when you get that message box, it is probably outputted by the site. However I didn't find that notification from the source of the site you gave. Does it come in the frontpage or one of the subpages? A direct url to the problematic page might help a whole lot.

    Re: AJAX on VB Browser

    Merri I know what exactly is AJAX. But the point is not the problem of a site. It loads perfectly in Internet Explorer 7 Beta2 , Opera 9 Beta, FireFox and rest of all. You may have not probably noticed "Own" browser. I want to enable AJAX on a web browser which I have made.

    Thank you for your wikipedia references. You need to Login to rediffmail to experience that msg in a browser which does not support AJAX

    Re: AJAX on VB Browser

    Well, then I can't help. You'll have to look into the page's source code yourself to see how the error message is given out. If it does some kind of browser detection, you're out of luck. Also, how much it is your own? If you're actually doing everything (ie. not using Webbrowser object), then you just have to code support for all the technologies and standards mentioned in my last post.

    Re: AJAX on VB Browser

    Merri I told you I am using Web Browser Object (Microsoft Intrenet Controls 6.0). It is not given out by web browser I think so The Rediffmail checks whether my web browser is AJAX Enabled if not it displays not. If you or any one else can help me. Please do so . I want to enable AJAX on my web browser.

    If it works in IE 6 it should work in the WebBrowser control since they are one and the same.

    Re: AJAX on VB Browser

    Pengate but its not working. And aslo I am not using IE6 its IE Beta 2 Preview then is there any error in Beta.

    You also plz do the same and navigate to rediffmail.com in a web browser created by you. and make a new account. plz. and try logging in it thru IE and your own browser and say if it works for you. Please or www.microsoft.com\chat and select a room and type in your Passport ID and see whether you can see all things clearly in your web browser and do the same in IE and to confirm you see all. Both needs AJAX. But in MS it does not show a msgbox saying "Your Browser is not ajax-enabled"

    No, I'm not making a Rediffmail account just to test this. Sorry.

    Have you tried other Ajax pages with your browser? Do they work?
