The fight continues…
If I try to access a Silverlight application that is hosted on pretty much any web site, Chrome handles it without a problem. But when I try to access a Microsoft web site that has a Silverlight application, the webpage complains that the plugin has expired. Expired?
This is the page that complains. That page throws a message box. Not good. Now if you do not respond quick enough, Chrome will popup another message box asking if you want to stop the unresponsive plugin. Not good either. In this case it is the browser asking the question. But you never know. Message boxes should be banned from html and java script and also from all plugins. Only the browser process should dish out message boxes.
In the above page I think it was MSTECHED site ad or something that was causing the problem.
I clicked yes on the button that takes me to the Microsoft web page for downloading Silverlight. That web page says this browser is not compatible with Silverlight. Well, not according to all the Silverlight applications I have used on the web. Everything works fine.
There is a clear distinction between fair competition and animosity. These two are showing the latter with elementary school maturity.
