Editing Encyclopedia:Browser notes (section)

== Browsers on [[Microsoft Windows]] ==

===[[Google Chrome]] and [[Chromium (web browser)|Chromium]]===
* Large text sizes in [[User:Cacycle/wikEd|wikEd]] and [[meta:User:Pathoschild/Scripts/Regex_menu_framework|Custom Regex]] Gadgets?

===[[Opera (web browser)|Opera]]===
*Superscript text creates a few pixels of extra line space. There is [[User:Mzajac/monobook.css/Superscript fix|a fix]], though with the fix the superscript/subscript text looks <nowiki><small></nowiki> and slightly raised or lowered instead of superscripted or subscripted, making it hard to determine what is superscripted or subscripted in some instances.
*Quotes not displaying on Wikipedia pages properly?
**Click on View → Encoding → Automatic Selection.

===[[Internet Explorer]] and [[MSHTML]]-based browsers===
Old versions of IE demonstrate poor support of relatively recent (e.g., post-1999) W3C Web standards, but are still in use.  As a result, certain elements may not look or work exactly right, although generally a workaround of some kind is implemented server-side if possible. Among the most visible issues are:
* Prior to version 7, IE does not support alpha transparency of [[PNG]] images, showing an opaque grey background instead.
* Prior to version 8, IE does not render the {{tag|q}} tag with quote marks.
* Prior to version 10, IE does not support CSS3 columns, showing text formatted using {{tl|reflist}} or {{tl|div col}} in a single column.
* IE running on Windows XP does not override the display font where glyphs do not exist in that font, such as for passages of multilingual text or [[International Phonetic Alphabet |IPA]] used for pronunciation.  Templates exists to work around this deficiency (see [[Template talk:Polytonic]], [[Template talk:IPA]], [[Template talk:Unicode]]).
* Due to increasing incompatibilities in scripting, JavaScript has been disabled for IE 6 and 7 on all projects.
