KevinPurcell Posted November 18, 2019 Share Posted November 18, 2019 it looks like the Windows version is using IE as the browser. Is this correct? Unfortunately this really limits the browser. I wrote an article and created a YouTube video showing how to use the internal browser to use Logos and Wordsearch web apps to show books inside Accordance, but because it seems to use IE this only works on a Mac and not on Windows. I was wondering if the Accordance folks could possibly use Chrome instead. All of this is predicated on the program using IE. if it doesn't, then the internal browser is not standards compliant and needs a lot of work.

mgvh Posted November 19, 2019 Share Posted November 19, 2019 Yeah, I had raised the issue in a comment on your video. I have now updated to Acc13, and it does appear to me that it is using the old IE engine. Cf here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
befranks Posted November 19, 2019 Share Posted November 19, 2019 It does use IE, and you're right - that really limits things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KevinPurcell Posted November 20, 2019 Author Share Posted November 20, 2019 Since MS is transitioning their browser to Edge and currently there is in development an Edge browser based on Chromium (the engine that controls the Google Chrome browser) I bet that Accordance is just using IE as a stopgap method. I don't know this through any official announcement and I'm just guessing. I bet they will switch to the new Edge once MS finishes that transition. I hope at least. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
befranks Posted October 1, 2020 Share Posted October 1, 2020 Any insight on this from people in the know at Accordance? I would really love to have a different browser for Accordance as I can see it being really useful to integrate with the program. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Solly Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 I don't know about you, but all this teasing from Rick and Silas have me on Edge! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
