Support for Opera browser

I was wondering if you could add Opera as an acceptable browser for running roll20 stuff.

It's ok, I understand that priorities of somethings have to be at the bottom of the list.

In the future we do intend to try and get browser support extended to include Opera as well as (hopefully, assuming it does everything we need) IE 10. But that is a lower priority item right now since everything is changing so quickly. Just out of curiosity: what do IE9/IE10 *not* have what you need which justifies completely blocking those browsers instead of degrading gracefully?

<a href="http://caniuse.com/#search=pointer-events" rel="nofollow">http://caniuse.com/#search=pointer-events</a> There are others, but that is a major one. Also see under "Known Issues", "Does not work on SVG elements for Safari 5.1", which is why Safari is currently incompatible as well. I know people think that there's some sort of "we hate IE" thing going on here, but there's really not. I'll support whatever implements everything in HTML5 that we need. I am very hopeful that Microsoft is making a strong commitment with IE10 to get all of those things implemented, and when they do, we'll be first in line to support IE. I could "unblock" IE but you wouldn't be able to interact with the virtual tabletop at all, since all of your pointer events/clicks would get "eaten" by the fog of war layer instead of passing through to the actual tokens layer -- so you can basically not select or move anything. I see. But isn't this the result of Firefox, Chrome, etc. working in a way that doesn't follow the W3C recommendation? Afaik, the W3C only suggests pointer-events for SVG elements and not for all HTML elements, and even after quite some searching I've only found this reference for pointer-events as a HTML CSS property (but this is in the draft for CSS4). Would it be an alternative to work with inline SVG elements in that cases, as described here and here ? Because I really don't think that IE is going to see pointer-events for HTML any time soon.

So the Android browser does support pointer events? What spec is it failing on then?

Thx Riley, As someone who travels a lot with only an iPad, I appreciate your work.

As a UI developer for a web company, when is IE not a problem? Anyone that uses it, please stop!

As a UI developer for a web company, when is IE not a problem? Anyone that uses it, please stop! I find this attitude incredibly arrogant, annoying and aggravating. -.- "Anyone that drives Ford, please stop!" "Anyone that drinks Pepsi, please stop!" "Anyone that listens to Madonna, please stop!" "Anyone that uses features not finalized in a W3C standard, please stop!" HTML by default follows the principle of the lowest common denominator. Using features that are not finalized yet and are only available in a single browser sucks, no matter if the only supported browser is Internet Explorer, Firefox, Safari, Konqueror or Chrome. I really like how it's generally perceived as completely awesome when Mozilla or Google put bleeding-edge features or some other new hot shit into their browsers that aren't finalized yet or not even detailed in the standard, but when Microsoft does the same with their browser it's the end of the free world! And of course there's a huge difference between "This site only works in Chrome" and "This website has been optimized for Internet Explorer 7". Double standard much? *rolleyes* (That last paragraph wasn't directed at you directly, but rather a general tangent rant about today's web >.>)

IE is free - so are all the others, what's the big deal in changing to a better browser? But I digress- my preference is for mobile browsers before and other desktop ones are supported. Keep up the AWESOME work :)
