Sina Science and technology news Beijing time, September 16 morning, Microsoft Internet Explorer team Leader Dien Hatsamovic (Dean Hachamovitch), said in Wednesday, Microsoft for the Tablet computer optimization of the "Metro" version of IE 10 browser will not support any plug-ins,  This also means that after Apple's iOS operating system, Windows also joined the anti-Flash corps, Adobe Browser plug-in will face another serious challenge. Metro is the new "touch" user interface in the Windows 8 operating system that Microsoft plans to launch in 2012, which provides a new look for Windows 8 and an important core part of the entire operating system. Microsoft will launch two versions of IE 10 in the Windows 8 operating system, one of which is the Metro version and the other is the upgraded version of IE 10 in the current Windows 7 interface.  Hatsamovic in post that the upgraded version of IE 10 will remain compatible with Plug-ins, but Metro will not. Hatsamovic's blog has been praised by a large number of flash critics and advocates of using new Internet standards to replace flash users. "The metro version of IE, which uses a disabled plug-in, can improve battery life, enhance security, reliability, and effectively protect the privacy of users," he said in the article. Plug-ins are really important in the early days of Internet development, but the internet has been going on for a long time and has now developed HTML 5. From a technical standpoint, continuing to provide old plug-ins will seriously impact-not improve and improve-consumers ' experience with the Metro version of the browser user interface. "But when it comes to attracting developers to use their products, Adobe doesn't press all the treasure on Flash Player. The company also developed a number of products to adapt to the new Internet standards, including animation tool edge, Web authoring tool Muse, the ability to convert Flash to HTML 5 format tools Wallaby and the old web site development tools Dream Weaver.  Adobe has also been actively involved in the development of new Internet standards. However, Flash Player is still an important development object for the company, because it is designed to attract developers to write software and to enable these software to be used across platforms in many browsers and operating systems. Adobe is also working to bring Flash into the mobile device industry and has worked closely with Android.  The Adobe team also won another victory on the ipad: a flash based game became a popular product for the ipad. In addition, Adobe is constantly promoting the rapid development of Flash, the current version of the Flash PlAyer 11 has entered the Release Candidate phase with features including support for 3D graphics acceleration and 64-bit design.  At the same time, Adobe updated flash with an effective compatibility with the latest HTML 5, CSS 3, faster JavaScript, and other Internet standards, so that flash can better support gaming, high-definition video, and the use of enterprise internal applications.  Adobe has yet to respond to Microsoft's stance. Adobe is not the only victim of this Windows 8 update. Microsoft itself will have to abandon its Silverlight plug-in, but the latter has been living in the shadow of a very wide range of flash, and has not been widely used by users. However, Microsoft said at the build meeting that Silverlight applications could be directly converted to the Metro version of the application. (linjing) to share:
