I personally think that _EVERYBODY_ with a CCO contract should open up a TAC case complaining that X-application (website, RME, VMS, etc..) doesn't work with a W3C-Standards Compliant browser, nor with latest-bug-fixed JREs. I've already got mine open, but of course "Use I.E. or some old version of Netscape Navigator, and an old JRE!" is the typical response. They need a lot more prodding to keep their security platform up-to-date with security standards.I have been griping to my Cisco sales team for years (being an Ex-Cisco SE myself) about the dismal support for any browser but IE. I could dump IE entirely were it not for my Call Manager. At least it seems that some of the products that they acquired that were initially cross-platform usually remain fairly browser-agnostic. -- ------------------------------ Richard Silver Sr Network Engineer East Alabama Medical Center www.eamc.org ------------------------------
It's funny you mentioned that - just came back from Networkers 2004 in New Orleans, and this was one of the biggest complaints and hottest topics there - and you know what the answer of Cisco "geeks"/developers was? They recognized their web interface sucks, and they are looking (?!?) into better java support, but it is a problem of speed that they're dealing with, and the only solution for this - so far - is (presumably) what they already offer us ...
