E. Browser Compatibility

I have tested the Digital Athletic Log with a range of browsers. Safari, Firefox, and Opera all render the Digital Athletic Log well. Internet Explorer 6 and Konqueror renders the Digital Athletic Log almost as well.

Update on 26 SEP 05: Opera 8.5 on OS X does a poor job of rendering the login page. It does't seem to have problems rendering the rest of the site.

Internet Explorer 5 (Mac) and Netscape 4 do a poor job. If you must use these much older browsers (IE5 or Netscape 4) to browse the Digital Athletic Log, I recommend you turn off stylesheets (in the advanced section of the preferences). The display will lack color and formatting, but it will be useable (I have tested this).

Printing your data from the Digital Athletic Log's `Export' page works properly on most modern browsers. Firefox, Opera, Internet Explorer, and Safari have all been tested successfully. Older versions of Safari may crash when the report is printed. Upgrading to version 1.3 or later fixes this.

The Digital Athletic Log has also been tested successfully with several text browsers, including: lynx, links, elinks, and w3m.

I'm looking for data on how well the Digital Athletic Log performs on handheld browsers. I have tested it using Opera's Small Screen Rendering (SSR) technology.

Please contact me if the Digital Athletic Log is not displaying properly in your browser. My goal is to make the Digital Athletic Log as accessible as possible.
