aspx thread: Scott: What's an Up-Level Browser?

Scott,
What's the definition of an up-level browser? IE 5.0 or greater?
Is there any way to customize what browsers are considered up-level?
Is there any way built into ASP.NET for Microsoft to change this as new
browser versions are released?
I know that there is a browsers section in the web.config file but is this
even used by the controls?
Thanks,
Paul

I know I am not the appropriate Scott, but an uplevel browser is IE 4.4 or
above.
I believe it has to do with what version of JavaScript the browser can
understand.

In Beta1 we had the rather draconian policy of treating only "IE 4.0
browsers" and above as "uplevel". The downside with this of course is
that the term "uplevel" means different things (CSS support, DHTML
support, Javascript DOM support, XML, etc). It also wasn't configurable
-- which made lots of people scream.
In Beta2 we have changed so that individual controls now look for more
fine grain browsecas support -- rather than just checking for whether
the browser is "uplevel". For example: styles will be rendered using
CSS if the browser supports styles -- independent of whether they
support a JavaScript DOM.
All browser support settings will also be configurable within the
<browserCapabilities> section of the configuration file. So as new
browsers come up (or if you want to tweak things), you can update the
browser capabilities to effect the output.
Hope this helps,
Scott
