Browser compatibility
Abila strives to support netFORUM in the most recent releases of major browsers. Generally, netFORUM supports the most recent releases of Firefox, Chrome and Safari (Mac only). For Internet Explorer (IE), netFORUM will generally support the most recent version of IE as well as one version back.
We make a greater priority to support older versions of IE given the user base of eWeb.
If you encounter issues in netFORUM with a particular browser, please report them to us so we can address them.
For more information on particular builds with regard to browser support, please see below.
iWeb

In addition, certain toolkit features are only available in Internet Explorer.

Browser/Server Issues
Internet Explorer 10
For premise-based clients who are hosting their own netFORUM site, be sure your web servers are up to date.
We have found some examples of Internet Explorer 10 on Windows 8 machines not working correctly because of a missing server patch. See Bug and Fix: ASP.NET fails to detect IE10... for more.

The following features are supported only in IE:
