Windows Vista & IE7 Beta 1 Available
The information published in this post is now out-of-date and one or more links are invalid.
—IEBlog Editor, 21 August 2012
Beta versions of both Windows Vista (formerly codenamed “Longhorn”) and IE7
for Windows XP are now available. Back in
February we committed to releasing betas this summer. I’m sure it
surprises some people, but we did what we said we’d do.
How interested you are in actually running pre-release software should
depend on who you are. For example, I think that running pre-release
MSN Virtual Earth or the
Windows Antispyware Beta is interesting for everyone. I think
NetScan is less interesting for broad audiences.
The beta versions of
Windows Vista and
IE7 that have just released should be interesting to developers and IT
professionals. For this reason, the beta is available to MSDN subscribers
and a pretty small set of pre-enrolled beta test participants. Our goal is
to get feedback from this group, do a bunch more work around quality
(performance, security, reliability, etc.) and some features (e.g.
additional standards support beyond what’s in
beta 1, additional functionality around tabs and RSS, etc.), and release
Beta 2 much more broadly.
With Beta 1 done, you can expect much more active posting about technical
details on the features that are now public. We’ve posted an
IE7 Technology Overview,
What’s New in Internet Explorer 7 for Developers, and an
Anti-Phishing Whitepaper. Based on questions and feedback from the
beta, we’ll blog and post more.

I'm not happy about this at all, for months and months and months we were told this would be public. It feels like we've been stabbed in the back to be quite honest. I am extremely dissapointed by this move. Microsoft and the users would have been greatly benefited if this was made more widely available.
You think Vista and IE7 are just interesting to developers and IT Professionals? Are you kidding me? Have you been to any of these huge forums (I won't name the names but one has over 120K members)? - Anonymous

Dean, this really should have been more widely avaliable. Not all web developers have MSDN subscriptions, but making things better suit them (by giving them access to the IE7 beta) will better suit everyone using IE as you will have feedback on what the issues with IE7 are sooner. - Anonymous

MS doesn't follow industry practice in that alphas can get new features and betas have the feature set locked, correct? - Anonymous

The Technical Overview made very interesting reading I look forward to reading more about the new features on this blog.
I have to admit though, I did burst out laughing when I read: "Web developers have expressed some frustration with certain peculiarities in the behavior of Internet Explorer 6, especially in the areas of standards support."
Nice bit of humour there :) - Anonymous

Why don't the devs this beta is restricted to have the FRIGGIN' CHANGELOG. They have no idea of the details of each change.
You say you've improved CSS standard support. PROVE IT. WHERE'S THE DOCUMENTATION OF THE CHANGES? - Anonymous

what happened to the IDN's support?
we've been waiting for more than 5 years for the release of IE7 and in the end Microsoft failed to deliver as always.
I don't have the smallest bit of faith on Microsoft anymore.

Microsoft is just asking for an illegaly leaked version of IE 7 B1 floating around. Yes, I'm really disapointed in this decision. But as soon as I saw "IE 7 B1 Released" headline, I knew it was too good to be true. - Anonymous

I don't see it in the list of downloadable products in my MSDN list either. Is it a separate download, or is it only part of Vista? - Anonymous
January 01, 2003
Man, what a bunch of CRY BABIES!!
Of course the MSDN subscribers get their hands on the beta first - THEY PAID FOR IT!
I just confirmed that I'll be getting beta 1 of Vista and, I assume, IE7 in my TechNet Plus subscription this September.
It makes sense to start small with a first beta distribution. If MS released the beta to everyone, 99% of all the feed back would be slashdotters who are looking for yet another excuse to flame (read: most of you).
You want your initial round of feedback to come from SERIOUS users of the product (read: almost none of you).

And then you wonder why Microsoft are frequently slammed. It is a perfect example of why Microsoft are clueless as to how to listen and talk to customers. Widely reported as going to be a public beta, they limit it to a small subset of developers and MSDN subscribers who in all probability are MS fans to begin with.
So the exercise then is to attempt to control the feedback as opposed to exposing the beta to a wide range of people who will critique the beta from all perspectives? - Anonymous

Microsoft just made two big mistakes:
Promising a public beta but only delivering a restricted beta, and not providing enough documentation.
A restricted beta is a great way to test a product, but if Microsoft wants to improve its, when it comes to IE, dirty image, it had better keep its promises, and we got a promise for a public beta during the summer. It's not about being a "crybaby", like James suggested above - it's about delivering on your promises!
Second of all, and I'd think Microsoft would nail this regarding the amazing size of the MSDN Library and other documentation, the "Improved handling of CSS" genre of writing your revision history is not a good way to go. It's insanely important that rendering bugs such as the guillotine are fixed (since they shouldn't have been in there to begin with), but for a company that promised harder work on CSS, there's not really any details on what's been added or even what's been fixed, not even a hint in the general direction of the changes.
I can't help ending this comment with the note that the Technical Overview is a Word document. Doesn't Microsoft trust its own browser to render that correctly? - Anonymous
January 01, 2003
wow, here I was thinking MS were trying to be helpful.
I don't remember seeing anything that said we had to subscribe to try the beta. Not to mention that you have to PAY to subscribe!
Can I just ask WHY you haven't release the beta publicly?
I was expecting to be able to download it before (the US) summer was over, but I guess the vast majority of us can't.

Scale-to-fit printing is an excellent idea. A related feature that Acrobat has had for years that would be exceeding useful: reverse printing. A lot of users with bubble jet printers that print face-up would benefit from this.

Some of you claiming "Well MSFT didn't say it wasn't a public beta" are not thinking this through. The point is that we, as users, were decieved. When people claimed "Can't wait for the Beta," no IE dev bothered to mention "Oh yeah, it won't be public." They didn't even say that it was a possibility. That's a very dirty marketting trick, and from the reviews I'm reading, IE7 doesn't look very impressive anyway. At all. - Anonymous

More testers always mean more errors will likely be found. Restricted version won't be going anywhere.
Remember XP when it is first released. Why don't the MSDN testers find all the security holes before it is released? It is the general consumers reporting XP crash and spyware attack help us having a stable XP like it is today.
Most likely no thing wil change if things keep going this way. Sign! Microsoft, you will never learn... - Anonymous

Simon is correct. If they said they'll release a public beta this summer, they still might release the next beta publicly before summer is over.
That being said however, I'm normally a MS fanboi, but I'm pretty disappointed by what I've seen so far in the screenshots of IE7. The weakness in IE6 for me is NOT the interface (tabs maybe, but I consider it a minor issue), and it's not security (again, for me, as I don't install ActiveX as readily as your average idiot user). The weakness in IE6 for me is the underlying rendering engine, which they better have improved upon by IE7 beta 2 or I'm so going to give Firefox a try. - Anonymous

I'm confused. I thought this version was supposed to improve upon the standards support. I guess that was supposed to be NEXT version, because as far as I can tell, all that was changed was a few bug fixes in the already supported features. This isn't a new version of a browser, it's a new shell for the same browser.
I have to say, if you honestly think that you're answering the wishes of the web development community, you are dead wrong. You have completely betrayed us, and I'm sick of it. The web development community will continue to strongly promote Firefox, Opera, Safari, and other alternative browsers until you finally decide to quit doing the bare minimum for the public and start doing it right for developers.
The following is a list of bare minimum features that must be fully supported by the time IE 7 is released. If you don't at least meet this basic list, then you have proven that you simply don't care about developers.
Proper HTML object fallback model, abbr element, q element, properly handle the application/xhtml+xml mime type, CSS "inherit", CSS child selector, adjacent selector, all four attribute selectors, active and hover pseudoclasses for all applicable elements, first-child pseudoclass, before and after pseudoelements and content property for strings and urls, table display values, max/min height/width, position:fixed, right and bottom, reasonable support for the standard DOM event model, and gamma correction in PNGs.
I don't care how long it takes, I just don't want to see IE 7 until at least this list is met. You say you are listening to the developers? Well, here it is. Nothing here is unreasonable; most other major browsers have supported everything here for quite a while now. Support for all of this would put Internet Explorer near halfway to the level that the competition is at. Please, for once, impress me. - Anonymous

- REFRESH button missing (can right-click instead)
2. Toolbars don't stay locked (Google, Canon Easy-WebPrint, & Pluck being used)
3. Cannot move tabs bar from beneath Address bar. Top or bottom of browser window would be reasonable.
4. Need more options on where and when to open new tabs versus new window.
5. How do I import RSS feeds from OPML file?

IE7 fixes TWO CSS bugs?! TWO?!! And this is some big advancement?Anonymous
January 01, 2003
After playing around with IE 7 for a while, I can only say that I am truly disappointed.
First thing I did was to test it with some of Eric Meyers CSS edge demos. And to my surprise (well, not really) none of them that didn't work in IE 6 worked fine in IE 7.
Not even
http://www.meyerweb.com/eric/css/edge/complexspiral/demo.html !!!
This means that IE 7 still doesn't have full CSS1 support. Year 2005.
I also tested out CSS2 selectors with no luck, :hover for example, still only works on links. This means no CSS menus in IE. I also tested other irritating bugs, such as:
<div style="float:left; margin-left:100px;">this will have a margin-left of 200px instead of 100px</div>
And again, bug was still there. So actually, what was really fixed in this release? I read about 2 CSS bugs being fixed. Wow, you work on this browser for years and you fix 2 CSS bugs? I don't know if I should laugh or cry.
IE 7 feels like IE 6 but with a new GUI. While the tabs are nice (welcome to the new millennium IE), this beta is nothing more than a big disappointment. Actually this even beats the Netscape 6 disappointment, and I would never imagine that could be beaten.

Well I think the developers have certianly attacked the right areas, but we'll just have to wait and see how good the standards support really is.
I like the fact that they will finally be supporting other search engines, lets hope they sypport the same plugin standard as mozilla - the last thing we want is another set of competing standards.Anonymous
January 01, 2003
The browser looks good - not bad at all for a first beta. My comments would be;
1) As already mentioned, complete and reliable CSS 2 support is absolutely essential (although obviously not expected in this initial beta).
2) The interface really needs some work - the tabs / menu / address bar mix up all feels extremely clunky at the moment. Especially when using 'Windows Classic' style. I really hope there will be some improvements in this area before the next beta - take a good look at Safari because it does such a good job with the interface.
3) I managed to get it to crash completly by double clicking a Favorites folder. Although I can't seem to make it do it again!Anonymous
January 01, 2003
> when we double click on a TAB it should Close that TAB
I kept trying to do this as well! Not sure why, but it feels like a really intuitive way to close a tab. An alternative might be a little 'x' to the right hand side of the open tab.
The 'x' on the right doesn't really do much for me, and it just makes it look like a FF clone! ;)Anonymous

I have a couple of questions.
> Internet Explorer 7 is prioritizing compliance to CSS standards by first implementing the features that developers have said are most important to them.
Now, fixing two bugs isn't a feature, so presumably there are at least some additions to Internet Explorer's CSS support. So what are they?
Do you plan on fully complying with the CSS 1.0 specification in the final release of Internet Explorer 7.0?
> The final release of Internet Explorer 7 will focus on improving the developer experience by reducing the time needed for developing and testing on different browsers.
Will Internet Explorer 6.0 and 7.0 installed alongside one another be a supported configuration?Anonymous

I rather like the new interface, I've just started using it, so I really haven't tried anything special with it.
Some points:
1. Everytime I open a new tab, the same unneeded icon buttons pop open. A new tab should have the same buttons as the old tab, unless a user decides to change it.
2. Opening a new tab should have the option of going to the home page, not a blank page.
3. Tabs from other IE windows should be able to be dragged into another IE window, to consolidate the tabs from a popup (say, hotmail) into one IE window.Anonymous

What proportion of web developers (i.e. the people interested in IE7) have MSDN subscriptions?
I've also heard that running the installer itself requires 'Windows Validation' (not just the download page) - seems overkill to me, but there you go.
As for the 'Phishing filter' - who wants any details of their browsing history transmitted to MS for checking of suspect sites?Anonymous
January 01, 2003
As a developer, I'm disgusted by what I've read so far with regards to the CSS 'improvements'. I know Microsoft is a business; but seriously - think about what you're doing. You're turning your back on what is possibly the most important step forward in website development.
I've lost hope now. It's clear you're not going to get even CSS2 support implemented properly for the final release if this is where the program starts. From a developer's point of view - this is HIGHLY frustrating. From a business point of view - this is utterly foolish.Anonymous

Wow - so many complainers. "I gave it 15 minutes and gave up". LOL! Are you married? I bet not... If so, good thing she/he said yes when you popped the question... cause if she/he had said... "let me think about it" you would have responded "you have 15 minutes".
Seriously, it only makes sense to release it on MSDN first. Do any of you people complaining not realize that this is the general process MS follows?!?
Oh and regarding the bugs... It is a BETA people!!!!! And for that matter, it is beta 1!!!
Ok, now that I am past my rant, I wanted to make a couple comments. First off, it is available on MSDN download under "Operating Systems" and is only 10MB for the download. I love that part of it - it is small!!!
Second comment - overall, stability seems decent with one exception that I have found this far. Amazingly, Windows Update page no longer works. That is annoying for obvious reasons.
Another comment regarding the refresh button... Once I found it, I was semi-ok, but I do miss it. It would be nice to at least have the option of putting the refresh button on the menu where I like it. IMO. Which brings up another suggestion... it would also be nice to be able to customize the toolbars and their locations better. I don't think this is too much to ask.
On a side note - I love how compact everything is at the top. Very nice if you ask me. And another awesome improvement... THANK YOU FOR TAKING AWAY THE MENU AT THE TOP IN FULL SCREEN MODE!!!!
Overall, for a beta release, I would give this a A-/B+ rating. And for you complainers... go download firefox and stop spamming here. :PAnonymous

January 01, 2003
Okay, the download is back in Operating Systems, it was missing for a while this morning.
Feedback:
1. tabs should be below menu bars not above- File,Edit etc. have alway sbeen top left of program. Why not now? Is that just my install, can I change it? Given that the UI layout is a firefox clone (and why not, that's not criticism - it works!), this should have been kept the same.
2. See comment above Re: Acid2 test. I mean really... I know it's beta 1 and all but did you think you'd get away with it and not anger a LOT of people?
3. NICE rss reader, saw the demo on channel 9 and it's fairly good. Is a 'live bookmarks' or similar feature in there? I can't see it so far and I use this all the time in FF to monitor read rss feeds 'on the side'
That's all for now, this feedback is for XP sp2 version, not seen vista yet. Are the two (IE versions) exactly the same? I assume not.
Anyway. a LOT more to do (esp. re: CSS 2.1 etc. you gus know more than anyone how important it is to do this or risk killing the IE brand forever as a browser) but it's nice that you're willing to show some progress is being made.Anonymous

"Both the peekaboo and guillotine bugs have been addressed, and work on other issues is under way to provide web developers with reliable and robust CSS functionality. "
I guess a lot of people don't read anything at all. Clearly MS states that more issues with CSS will be dealt with. Clearly they weren't finished with it in time for this beta 1 release. So why not wait for that then, in beta 2 or the final beta/release candidate before complaining so much about the CSS.Anonymous
January 01, 2003
Because it's so vague, there's no mention that IE7 will support CSS2 fully, which - I feel should be a paramount specification. The fact that only 2 CSS bugs have been dealt with thus far doesn't leave me with much confidence at all.Anonymous

And at the rate of one CSS bug fix every two years , we can expect Internet Explorer to get CSS support on par with the rest of today's web browsers in the year 5000 or so.
Peekaboo and Guillotine bugfixes since Internet Explorer's release four years ago. Any more to add to the list, or is one bugfix every two years about right?Anonymous

For goodness' sake - this is a FIRST BETA. It's way off production. I loathe IE6's CSS support as much as anyone else, but read what it says. It's NOT a finished product!
"CSS Updates - Internet Explorer 7 includes fixes for issues with the Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) feature. Both the peekaboo and guillotine bugs have been addressed, and WORK ON OTHER ISSUES IS UNDER WAY to provide web developers with reliable and robust CSS functionality."
"Please give us feedback on all of the features and changes in Internet Explorer 7 Beta 1; MANY OF THEM, including the User Interface, ARE PRELIMINARY AND UNDER DEVELOPMENT and your feedback is important in perfecting Internet Explorer 7 for shipment to all of our customers."

Not trying to add to the bashing going on here (really come on guys this IS a beta!) but can you uninstall IE7 after installing? IE7 broke MSN support in Trillian and I have to say I'd rather have Trillian than IE7.

Wow!
I love the user interface. I've been using IE7 for about 2-3 hours now and am beginning to wonder how I lived without it. I cannot understand why people dislike it. Everything appears to be in the right place (even the File.. Edit.. menus)
I must admit that the refresh button is awquad to get to, but I NEVER use the refresh button (F5).. so not a problem for me.
I'm somewhat dissapointed with the continuous lack of CSS support. Common guys.. you need to get this fixed! acid2 still looks like a traincrash. Only two of these: http://www.positioniseverything.net/explorer.html have been fixed.
Overall I adore IE7.. its sooo fricken speedy and the UI is great. But it's time for IE to catch up with technology and get standards SORTED!Anonymous

January 01, 2003
Come on people... Let's all wait for Beta 2. As with Windows, Microsoft always keeps new features at bay until the second beta. I believe the CSS rendering could be undergoing major improvements and might just not be ready for a Beta 1 release. We might still get a really nice surprise for that latter beta...
I really hope MS will follow up on this. You guys put up with a lot of bashing here, I really thank you to keep this blog going as-is.
But I do have one question for the MS IE team. My question is : why don't you communicate more on these features people are waiting for ? I believe you realize more than anyone here the importance of some of them, for developers notably (CSS2 is just an example). But your silence makes me think : is it you guys not willing to answer, or is it Microsoft policy that forbids you to be anything but vague ? I'm not asking you to answer anything (though there are questions that I'd love an answer to), I'm just questioning the origins of this (deliberate?) lack of communication.Anonymous

One more additional comment that is really a bug report. I have an IBM T40 using a second monitor as a dual display.
With the browser on the laptops main display I can flip to full view and back and everything is fine.
If I move the browser over to the secondary monitor and hit full view the browser completely disappears. No menu, no viewport, no nothing except the taskbar placeholder that doesn't respond when clicked on and doesn't display a right click option menu.
Had to shut it down using the task manager. Hopefully this feature will be cleaned up before the next beta.Anonymous
January 01, 2003
To those of you that have access to the beta of IE7 - does it have a decent download manager (that allows pausing and resuming of downloads and whatnot)? I think IE6's greatest failing (UI wise) is lack of a decent download manager. All other browsers have one (and even Mac IE had one for years).Anonymous
January 01, 2003
Come on people, you're a bunch of hypocrites and whiners.
First, you whine and whine and whine that it isn't released yet. Then when it is, you whine and whine and whine that it's not perfect or complete yet.
First Beta's are never complete, and they often have major features or support missing from them. Usually, because the feature wasn't stable enough to be in a wide beta.
As far as the beta not being public. IT IS public. A closed beta is one that requires an invitation. Anyone can get this beta, just by being an MSDN subscriber. That's a public beta, even if you can't just download it for free. You don't have to sign any non-disclosure to get the beta, and most likely you will soon be able to order it from MS for the cost of shipping.
It's a public beta, people!
Just because it's not available to everyone for free doesn't mean it's not.
Finally... SO WHAT?!!! Give Microsoft your feedback, but for crying out loud... whining that the beta is incomplete so you're going to go to firefox or something else is just plain stupid.Anonymous

The mainstream press is just beginning to comment about Windows Vista ("Longhorn") playing catch-up to Mac OS X 10.4 ("Tiger"), but after reading the comments about IE7, it looks like Microsoft will also be playing catch-up with Safari. And it won't be in the way you might expect.
Apple made a brilliant move in providing anonymous CVS access to WebKit and providing developers a mechanism to report bugs through http://bugzilla.opendarwin.org/. Technically, the WebCore piece of WebKit was already open source since it was forked off the KHTML project, and Apple provided--some might say "dumped"--patches for it on major releases. But by opening access to the entire framework, they now have effectively doubled (if not tripled--or more) the size of their team working on the code base. Most importantly, they essentially did it for free other than the cost of patch review and bug triage (which is also handled by volunteers). In fact, I predict that the next major release of Safari may be as standards-compliant as Firefox, if not better.
Why should this concern Microsoft? Because there is absolutely nothing stopping anyone from building their own web browser using the WebKit engine...on Windows. Suddenly, there may be two free, open source browser engines available for Windows, both of which render content better than Internet Explorer.
Good luck on IE7 Beta 2. :)

Why is everyone so surprised that they can't use MSIE 6 and 7 Beta 1 at the same time? Don't you remember that Microsoft made MSIE a part of the Windows operating system during the 1990s Browser War to justify distributing it with every copy of Windows? Do you really expect to be able to install two copies of Windows at the same time? Well, okay, VMware or Xen non-withstanding, it just can't be done.
It's kind of funny, though. If you have Mac OS X 10.4 installed and then you download and build a version of WebKit from anonymous CVS, you can start Safari using the newly built WebKit, including your local changes! How powerful is that for debugging and testing fixes? And there's absolutely nothing to install or uninstall to do it (other than standard developer tools). I guess there's something to be said about using an open architecture in your operating system.

Trying to be constructive here...
Good work cleaning up the UI. I fully agree that it got 'bloated' especially upon the addition of 3rd party toolbars. Looks much better here (I always try to minimize IE6 UI and this defaults to a very small screen-real-estate footprint). Kudos.
Good work on the tabs. Fairly solid implementation. I do think they get a little clunky when you've got a bunch open (20+). Could you allow the user some kind of 'grouping' functionality or the ability to scroll (left and right arrows) between them (like in vs.net2003)?
Wow! The rendering engine seems a lot faster! I'm super-impresssed but maybe I've just been used to the slow-down introduced by msn search toolbar's tabs? who knows.
Thank you for allowing the user to choose the preferred search engine in search bar. It would be nice as a user to be able to move it like the other items on the IE toolbar (links pane et. all).
Am I missing something? Where's the RSS aggregator built-in? (XP SP2). Does it require WinVi? I guess I'm expecting sage-like functionality. I'll try to find some documentation for this.
Please keep working on css bugs. As you can see here, there are many folks who think this is muy-importante!
Could you please include a text-search funcitonality like firefox that resides on the browser window itself instead of covering up the html? Ctrl-F has never been satisfying for me in IE.
Along the same lines - when a user hits Ctrl-O or Ctrl-L for changing the url of the page could you highlight and put the focus in the address bar instead of opening that silly pop-up location window?
Could you include 'Adblock' functionality that uses regular expressions (or just wildcards) for blocking undesired ads?
I realize that most/all of this is too-little, too-late as the feature set is almost certainly locked and nothing more is going to get dumped into this release.
Thanks for your hard work! Keep it up!

January 01, 2003
Found the rss aggregator stuff...fairly intuitive though not as flashy as sage (left 'history' sidebar thing is pretty slick). R-click-link --> add to favorites --> drop in rss folder of your choosing. (Later) choose said favorite and a very nice way of viewing rss feed data displays (though simple I agree w/ Xepol). I think I actually prefer it to the awkward boxes of sage/firefox. Is the css/format configurable? Can I determine what colors/font-families/text-sizes I want to use? Grouping would be nice (news,gossip,sports,weather). I guess I can do that already through the favorites functionality, though. Is there a way to show simply titles and no excerpts? You could get more feed data on one page and then maybe view multiple feeds?
Grouping of tabs in some form or fashion would be cool, though.
Again, thanks for your hard work.

You know what would REALLY help my system security?
My kids have access to my machine. It would help me considerably if they could not download anything or install ActiveX controls, or change settings without a password.
That way, they kids could be locked out of the inevitable stupidities they commit, and I could still be able to do everything. I can also imagine a serious benefit to network administrators and company security.
Something like this :
1. You can only change settings if the password is diabled OR if you have the password OR you have administrator rights
2. You can ONLY change or disable the password in the settings dialog.
3. You can ONLY download files if the password is diabled OR you have the password.
4. You can ONLY download and install ActiveX, fonts etc if the password is disabled OR you have the password.
5. you could not UPLOAD files unless the password was disabled or you have the password (via post)
6. In the case of a domain, let the network administrator use a policy (such as must be part of the downloaders group etc)
If this option was available, my kid's machines would be significantly more secure, my life would be easier, even office networks could be more secure.

I believe the GMail was more a viral marketing plan than anything else. "I can't have a GMail account? Why not. Please let me have one, they must be GREAT!"
How mch attention has this drawn to the product releasing it in a 'private' public beta. For those of you without an MSDN subscription you all want a look.
It's just a shame they we're so quick to launch without the things that a lot of the people who can take a look care about. I care about security but as a web developer rather than a user (hence the MSDN sub.) I wanted to see standards support first. Sure pressure was on them to show Vista and so they were required to show IE7 but as has been said before All you need to do is TELL US what standards will be supported in beta2 to let us know we're not wasting our time even coming here.Anonymous

Thanks for all the hard work! Things are really looking up with your browser. I like how it looks and can't wait to get it in my hands. My primary concern deals with standards compliance. I know this is an early beta but in the end, the more compliance, the better.
As a budding developer, I think Microsoft should set the standard and make it easier for me to develop apps with at least standards compliance with the W3.

Another one for you to fix:
1. Wrapping a <table> in an <a> element results in the link not firing when you click on it. It should work correctly as per the spec and as per EVERY other browser out there that I tested.Anonymous
January 01, 2003
James, which spec are you talking about? You cannot have <table> elements as children of <a> elements according to any HTML specification I know of. The correct parsing of such code is to assume the <a> element ends when the <table> element begins. If Internet Explorer behaves as you describe, then Internet Explorer is working correctly.
Although it is an error condition to miss out the required closing </a> tag, in which case any rendering is technically correct, the sensible thing for a parser to do is to assume there is an implied closing tag, since the content model of <a> elements forbids <table> child elements. The other alternative is to do something that is definitely non-compliant and can involve scanning in the character stream to see if there's a matching closing </a> tag after the <table> element. That's not sensible.
Complying with the specification doesn't mean making it work in Mozilla, or Opera, or any other browser. It means following the rules described in the specification. Usually, that's the same thing, but very occasionally, Internet Explorer gets it right when other browsers get it wrong, so you shouldn't automatically assume any particular browser's rendering is correct without checking with the specification first.Anonymous

Now that I got over my disapointment I can say that well, MS did make some improvements. The thing I noticed most was that the history seemed to work faster on my pc. I'm hoping beta 1 is only a beta of the ui and not the rendering engine, because most people know betas as close to the real thing, but containing bugs. If the rendering engine isn't going to be improved, I'm sure IE will use a lot of users. I think what disapointed most users is MS gave the "select few" an alpha quality browser and called it a non-public beta 1. I think that's the main MS mistake here.Anonymous

Easy on the language, JKay. I'm sure most of the bad posts were either from MS haters or people who were socked to find the rendering engine too close to IE 6. But I'd say MS did do a bad job of explaining a few minor details that led to some of the misunderstanding.Anonymous

JKay6969: As far as we web developers go, simply changing our brand won't fix the real problem. Internet Explorer costs us more time and effort than any other factor in web development. In most cases, if I spend about an hour or so on a page that works perfectly on Firefox, Opera, Safari, Konqueror, and ELinks, it then takes three hours just to make the darn thing work in Internet Explorer, and it often requires reducing the functionality of the webpage in some respect.
Internet Explorer is costing us time and money, and Microsoft continues to not deliver on their promises. We aren't just asking them to fix some "CSS bugs", we want the dozens and dozens of extremely useful and time-saving features that every major browser but Internet Explorer has supported for years.
The problem is that we can't reasonably do ANYTHING about this problem except sit here and wait for Microsoft to get their act together, or hope that other browsers stomp out IE's market share so that we don't have to worry as much about it. But right now, we're stuck in the dark ages, and Internet Explorer is the sole reason.
You say to wait and see what the final version offers. Here's how I see it: This beta release was clearly aimed at developers. It wasn't released to the public, just to MSDN subscribers, and they mentioned that this release is partly so web developers can test their sites in it and report any problems. But if this release was supposed to focus on developers, then why were no significant changes made that would be interesting to developers? Fixing two CSS bugs is not interesting. I'd expect that kind of progress from Firefox in a week. If Microsoft thinks that we would consider these changes remotely significant, then I have serious doubts about what the final version will bring. If Microsoft turns around and releases a quality product that solves all of our woes, I'll have to eat my words, but given everything surrounding this release, I seriously doubt that this could be anything half decent.

Feedback + suggestions:
Using a low footprint UI is a good idea but this approach is terrible. On default settings, the icons are too small, and the RSS icon gives the user no idea as to what it really does. The "new tab" mini-tab is unintuitive. It’s also a bit ugly. Also, the tab bar takes space even when there are no tabs. As for the favorites menu, make it an option to switch on scrolling menus. Overall the UI is very unintuitive.
The anti-phishing filter is a good idea though it could be smarter. It checks web pages that don’t even have fields. The filter could scan for key words by input forms. Phishers must identify fields like credit card number, password, id, etc. for a victim to input. An additional security measure would be to check for encryption.
The Delete Browsing History option is too simple. It could be more customizable. Speaking of which, Firefox has the right idea in keeping privacy related information all in one place. IE could take note. I’ve always felt that that the Internet Options window was just slapped together and anything that didn’t fit went to the Advanced tab.
Other:
Organizing favorites is time consuming. A simple explorer window is all that is necessary. The current implementation is no good. An improvement would be to use large icon view with bookmark order being left to top and top to bottom like explorer.
The export function can be improved. It could include all internet explorer settings, browser history, privacy list, restricted sites, etc or whatever the user wants. At the very least I’d like to see bookmarks kept in order when exported. They’re always alphabetized.
Now for the true nitpicks. The new IE icon camouflages itself on the quick launch bar. The old IE6 icon was the best as it stood out. I guess this depends on background color mostly so dynamic icons could be an innovation. This probably doesn’t apply to the IE team though.Anonymous
January 01, 2003
Beta 1 is more than a little bit rpoey - but no less ropey than I expected. I bet it has taken a while for the IE team to get themselves familiar with the code.
I hold out plenty of hope that things are going to improve a lot before Beta 2 appears.
I'll leave the rest of my comments to the ms beta newsgroups.Anonymous

Things I like:
1) The tab visual look and feel is great! It’s very easy to use and way better than the MSN Toolbar approach. I especially like the small “I want a new tab” that’s always on the far right.
2) I like the fact that the top of the window just contains the address & search controls, and the menu and small toolbar icons. It makes much better use of space for the web page. In fact, I disabled all my toolbars because I felt they took up space that could be used for my web page. I only really use the toolbars for searches which you now include in the top right corner anyway. Cool!
3) I like the context-based button on the right-side of the address bar. If you’re going to a page, it has an “X”. When you have loaded the page, it turns to a “refresh” button. I like it.
4) I like the new security padlock on the right of the address bar.
5) I like the new printing changes.
Things I don’t like or could be improved on:
1) The search control in the top right corner should have a “clear search history” menu option.
2) I found IE7 crashed a lot when using the “Links” toolbar favorites. I have loads of links in that folder and choosing just about any of the links can cause IE7 to crash (about 40% of the time).
3) I’d like a better and more official Microsoft IE7 feedback site.Anonymous

I know this has been requested many times already, but I would like to add my voice to the list:
Please consider releasing IE7 for Windows 2000, even if it does not have all the security improvements that IE7 for WinXP would. A lot of corporate computers use Win2K, and it would be very nice to have the CSS fixes, tabbed browsing, and printing improvements.
I realize that a release takes a lot of time and effort, but if you don't do this, many users will switch to Firefox or some other browser.Anonymous

The "goto" button in the address bar is totally unacceptable. it is not visible, the default appears to be "refresh" unless you type something into the address bar. This is usless. People copy and paste a url into the address bar and there is no other way now to go there unless you hit enter. I tend to surf with just the mouse I don't want to have to lean forward and hit the keyboard for this. And in order to get the "arrow" or goto button, you again have to touch the keyboard and write something in the address bar.
Try to fix this please it is very irritating, have the thing understand when you paste a url into the address bar, the arrow or goto button should be displayed.

I am a web developer, and I have a very real interest in how the new version of IE will impact, well, my job. I'm also interested in how the new version of IE will impact the organizations I work with.
The organizations I work with are not-for-profits, and an MSDN subscription would be a poor use of funds for any one of them. I'm not against the idea of a limited beta release, and I'm not against Microsoft making piles of money. I'll just not be recommending that my organizations send Microsoft money for this particular subscription. However, I am interested in the opinions of those who have the beta. I am interested in what impact the new release will have on the websites I create and on the way that others in the organization use the web.
To those of you who are attempting to provide fair, clear reviews of what IE7 is, thank you.
As I sit here, I think it would be true to say that as a developer, I will be most impacted by changes in how IE renders pages, probably. My opinions on what IE should be or could be are not terribly relavent. I know that I will need to support IE7 when it launches whatever it is. I would like to know what IE7 is (or what it will be). What kinds of tags or css properties will be rendered differently? What kinds of pages will be rendered differently? I don't necessarily care about better or worse. I'll need to support IE6 and Firefox and Safari and IE7 (when it comes out). So what will I need to do differently to support IE7?
From the comments above, it sounds like there are two CSS changes, and that most everything else stayed the same. To me this sounds like IE7 is mostly like IE6, and I shouldn't worry much about whether any particular page will render differently in IE7. If that is the case, so be it. I would welcome comments on this point from those of you who have the beta available to you.
Changes in the UI are worth noting, but it doesn't sound like they will affect me as a web developer. However, it sounds like changes in the UI may affect training, tutorials and user documentation.
So, if I have followed the comments correctly, pages will be rendered in a similar fashion to IE6, but an explanation of how to get to the page will be different (different buttons, different menu position, etc). Is this correct?
If this is the case, it would be helpful to be able to at least get a specific list of changes to the UI before IE7 is released through windows update for XP, if it is ever released in this way.
Why? Have you ever done a mail merge in Word XP? There was a wizard added to the process with the XP version. It was a change from Word 2000. The wizard was clearer for new users, but I had the experience of retraining several secretaries who had happily and successfully used Word 2000's version. The change from one to the other was drastic and jarring. Several needed assistance to continue doing what they were doing before. I say this because it sounds like the changes in the UI are, well, drastic.
Is this the case? Will user documentation and tutorials will need to be looked at with a careful eye given to how IE7 works? I would also welcome comments on this point.
As for whether I will like or dislike it, well, I'll make that determination in due course. However, I know that it will be with me for years to come in either case. Screaming for joy or screaming out of frustation will just get me worked up over something I can't change.
Thanks again.Anonymous

its the the same thing, if you hit default, you come across a form or something and a prompt asking if you want to redirect or soemething, a trivial warning which is checked if you wan't to not see that warning every again, which you accept, bumps it down to 'custom'.
Can't remember exactly but believe it is a small warning when using forms only.Anonymous

I tried out the IE7 Beta and would like to report an issue. Though I would like to state that I am not part of the beta program - I got the beta off a torrent site.
The problem is this, when I install IE7 - Windows Explorer loses the double click behavior. Items can no longer be opened with double click instead it defaults to editing the name. They can be still opened by right clicking and selecting open. The OS I am using is Windows XP SP2Anonymous

Wish list for IE7
- A version for Win 2000, I have no plans on upgrading to windows xp, ever. I will be upgrading to Vista whenever it does come out (lets just hope it’s not another WinME all over again). So many people and corporate environments do use 2000, as it is, IMHO, the most stable and (power) user friendly (windows) OS out there.
- Min/max height and width, specifically
- Just come out of the dark ages and support (fully and properly) css 2.0/2.1, and while you're at, lets try for a little future compatibility and throw in a little 3.0.
- Maybe consider scrapping trident & go for a quick release of 7.5 (or 8), and build a better browser from the ground up. There is no use trying to fix a dead horse.
- try looking at your competition. Firefox it eating up your market share at a decent rate, and although I have switched to Firefox (and have no plans of returning to you), as a developer I do have to live with and code for your product, you may want to take a look at what they are doing, and why they are doing it, and it will give you a decent benchmark to hit and it is something tangible to beat.
- remove integration from the os. Frankly, it is excessive, and if you are not going to build a fully standards compliant product, allow home users a choice, and allow developer to install multiple versions easily (so at least we only need to work on one machine to fix our sites to work with your products)

One of the things I think IE has over all other browsers is that it is already mostly loaded if you use Windows Explorer like I do.
Getting IE up from Windows Explorer is very fast, far far faster than Firefox.
Once IE releases v7 with tabs, I will uninstall Firefox.

I did it by accident too. It's between the address window list dropdown button and the search window towards the top right.
Kind of like it there, but really feel it should be down with the other buttons where we're most familiar, or at the least, an option to have it there.Anonymous

Well, I downloaded and used IE 7.0 and so far I am disapointed at the functionality, performance is ok, but overall functionality leaves much, much to be desired, especially the tabs capability.
I am also surprise at the number of sites that no longer work after the move to disable scriptlet support and replace it with behaviors.
Overall I think it is an OK product, it is unfortunate that it has not lived up to its promises.
I hope that beta 2 brings some improvements.
For now, is back to the IE6.Anonymous

I think they should release more features for Xp. Even that they know that 40% of the companies are still using !!old windows 2000. OH well!!! we will have to migrate to vista buy the OS, and also upgrade the hardware as well, and upgrade the software that we use... and retrain, and of course forget MS-DOS and learn the new interactive shell codenamed Monad (MSH).

hey, i've been playing around with IE 7
You need to keep everything the same as previous browsers, such as the toolbar being up the top etc.
also there needs to be a refresh button in there! i know you can right-click but the average user wont know that!!
and also another problem is when you close the browser it closes all TABS that are open. there needs to be a second layer of protection because everyone will be used to closing the browser etc.
i reckon if everything looks the same as IE 6 + the tabbed browsing it will be a good browser and i would use IE over Firefox

first of all: i like win os and ie 7 since they are easy to use and i'm expecting ie 7 beta x (x>=2).
every improvement,even if the smallest,is to be appreciated.
i've tried 3 times the installation of sp2 + ie 7.0 beta and got this trouble: ie 7.0 beta 1 handicaps Babylon pro, which is a electronic dictionary.
how i got this is that: babylon runs quiet well in sp2 but after the installtion of ie 7.0 beta 1, babylon can't find any already installed glossary and gives no explanation.
i don't think the interference of IE 7.0 beta 1 into the functioning of babylon is through a complicated mechanism, though i've only the faintest idea of how an electronic dictionary functions in win 32 platform.
i'm not a developer :(
if anyone here have some idea on how to fix or circumvent this. please help me out by posting the reply here.

When releasing browsers, especially beta versions, can you please not make them replace the previous version?
IE7 does not support all sites that are supported by IE6, so I am unable to reach many sites (most of which are internal tools for my company and therefore highly necessary). Just let it install in separate unqique place instead of auto-upgrading the old stable accepted version.Anonymous
