Microsoft has released the beta
for the newest version 9.0 of their most popular Internet Explorer browser. The
beta has bunches of new features, however does not have the updated version 9
UI.
Version 9 has some important
new things about it. For starters, there is support for HTML 5 and CSS 3, and a
new JavaScript engine. IE9 also has an "Acid Test" feature that will
let you test the compatibility and compliance of a website with IE9.
Additionally, this new browser
is programmed to use your GPU much better: IE9 uses your computer's GPU to
enhance hardware scalable vector graphics (SVG), JavaScript performance, and
HTML5 performance.
Microsoft’s new JavaScript will
also better take advantage of multiple CPU cores. With a dual core CPU, IE9
will be able to dedicate the second core to translating JavaScript to native
machine code to help speed up the browser.
Microsoft pointed out that IE9
will not run on Windows XP at all, and even in Windows Vista, Service Pack 2
must be installed to load IE9.
This is just the first of many
IE9 preview builds that will precede the first beta release. Microsoft not yet announced
the date of final release, but we can guess that it will be release during late
2011.
