71 Testing Xataface on IE6 when you have Vista So I ran into a pretty annoying problem the other day. I had to test a Xataface application on IE6 with Vista as my OS. Which basically meant I had IE7 preinstalled, and I couldn't install IE6. Ughh...annoying. I don't understand why people still use IE6, but whatever.br /br /The best way to actually shove this is to install a virtual machine with the OS set to XP and then you can use IE6 on it. To do this follow this a href="http://www.raizlabs.com/blog/?p=221"tutorial/a. br /br /One thing you need to note is that Virtual PC 2004 does NOT work on Vista. So you actually have to use Virtual PC (VPC) 2007 . This can be found a href="http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=04D26402-3199-48A3-AFA2-2DC0B40A73B6displaylang=en"here/a. The "Internet Explorer 6 Testing VPC Image" is still the same.br /br /Another annoying thing is that VPC 2007 is NOT fully supported with Vista Home edition (UGHHH...why are things to complicated!). And you'll be faced with all these messages not non-compatibility. But you are just limited from some features which I didn't bother looking directly into. But if you just want to test Xataface sites on it, then just ignore the messages and install it.br /br /After you have loaded the VPC image, then the next step is to actually setup internet connection from inside the VPC. If you are using a LAN connection, then do this:br /br /olbr /liEdit/libr /liSettings/libr /liNetworking /libr /liAdaptor 1: NAT/libr //olbr /br /Try to connect now, and if you have a firewall on then you will be prompted to allow the VPC to pass it. After you "unblock" it, then everything should work!br /br /If you are using wireless, then use this a href="http://claytonj.wordpress.com/2007/02/02/connect-virtual-pc-to-internet/"tutorial/a. /tables/news/image/ Sun Nov 16 07:42:00 2008 noreply@blogger.com (Fong Chun Chan) Approved Blog Fong's Blog http://fongxataface.blogspot.com/2008/11/testing-xataface-on-ie6-when-you-have.html 23 Internet Media Manager I was tired of having to resize my images before uploading them to the web.
