Crystal Enterprise on Firefox / Mozilla 2

[JennL]

Anyone know of any compatibility issues between CE nad Firefox? Is it a supported browser and if so at what version?
Thanks!

The only problem I've had with it is the Active X viewer does not display with Firefox. I do not know if this is an absolute limitation, though, and have not tried to force it to work. There is csp code in ePortfolio (v10) that reads the browser type and will not call the ActiveX viewer regardless of your preferences. I will also tell you I have only used FF in a test environment and have not pushed it real hard.

What he said

No problems with Firefox so far, other than (obviously) no ActiveX support (not a Crystal limitation).

It may work, but it's not supported, which means you shouldn't use it in a production environment unless you choose to provide all support services internally. Review the linked whitepaper:

Thanks for the link rhinok!
I always look to the Crystal (or BO...) sites first but did my search only on CE. Its so much more valid to have a whitepaper back you up on supported platforms!
