IE9 carries HTML5 with Microsoft's hopes for next year

Ryan Garvin Ryan Gavin, director of Microsoft's IE browser, said on Thursday that Microsoft will regain its competitive advantage with Google and Mozilla Firefox after the next generation of Internet Explorer 9 is released.

Garvin said that the new-generation Microsoft browser IE9 has aroused high interest of external software developers, and these external software developers will become the key to IE9's success. Gawen said that IE9 will be more open to third-party developers. Apple replaced Microsoft on Wednesday and became the world's most valuable technology company. Since the beginning of this century, the market share of IE browser reached 95%, the share of this product began to decline. At present, the market share of IE is only about 60%.

Microsoft believes that IE9 will provide a better visual experience than various browsers in the current market. IE9 will improve the computing capability of the computer graphics processor through the Windows operating system, thus improving the running speed of the software. In addition, Microsoft IE9 will support HTML5 standards to simplify developers' work and improve user experience. HTML5 is a standard web page language. You can directly use a browser that supports HTML5 to watch online videos without installing other plug-ins, such as Flash Player Plug-ins. Apple's public support for HTML5 and its rejection of Flash have triggered a conflict between the company and Adobe.

"We will use HTML5 as the core of IE9," Garvin said. We are fully engaged in HTML5 ." "If developers want to use exactly the same markup language, they will use Silverlight, Flash, and other plug-ins to achieve their goals," he said. In the future, HTML5 will allow developers to process images and videos ." Garvin also said that HTML5 will not depreate Flash and Silverlight. "I think standard plug-ins will coexist with HTML5 in the future ."

Microsoft has decided to allow developers to perform tests on IE9 earlier than in the past to stimulate excitement in the market and fix IE9 vulnerabilities early. He said, "We will start a new mode for IE9, which we have never experienced before ." Basically, this model allows developers to see our highly secure and complete testing environment and the new features we are building.

Canadian also said that since the release of the IE9 Test Platform in March this year, the number of downloads has exceeded 1 million. Microsoft updates IE9 every eight weeks. Microsoft can quickly fix the IE9 vulnerability identified by developers. However, many developers complain that IE9 must be operated on Windows 7 or Vista and does not support Windows XP. According to the Net Applications statistics of Internet traffic monitoring agencies, the market share of Windows XP in 9 years is 63%, and that of Windows 7 and Vista is 28%.
