Compat view is mode that force browser to render web as IE7 by use the iFrame. The problems of iFrame must be occur in this mode e.g. can not open some website such as google.com. (will be remove in next version because it not useful)

Compat view is use for read some website that work great in WP7.0 but in 7.1 has something wrong.

Just tried it out, and I like it. I do have some questions and suggestions though:

1. What's the difference between free and paid, just the ads in the settings ?
2. Can you add an option to keep the two bars open at all time ?
3. The tile could use the accent color scheme. Also doesn't seem to match the blue theme either.

Looking great

Very cool, it's very similar to IE10 for Metro Style, although it performs not as fast as IE9mobile. Can you improve the rendering performance any further? or have you reach the limitation of managed code?

Anyway, I have a couple suggestions I would like to see in future update
1. Can you get rid of the favicon and put the refresh button there instead? I see no reason for the favicon beside asthetic, it would be better if you move the refresh button there to make room for another button on the appbar.
Second, can you change the add favorite button to go to the favorite screen instead ? The favorite screen would be used more than adding favorite, so it would be logical to have the favorite button instead and move the add favorite to the drawer menu.

2. Have you use cloudfox? You can check the opensource here: http://cloudfox.codeplex.com/
Now I am wonder if you could integrate that app into vable browser and it would be super sweet to have firefox bookmark in vable browser!
If you get around to integrate it, put a button on the appbar to open up firefox bookmark.
3. Is it posible to make a built-in adblock mechanism that can be subscribe to abp's easylist?

That's all my suggestion, oh can why did you publish your app under yalla?

 

[thesecondsfade]

Looks cool. It needs the option to have websites see it as a desktop browser.

 

[xDomsx]

Looks nice... but I have this strange feeling that MS will limit full potential of this kind of apps so you wouldn't use it instead IE. I remember one great browser on NoDo that couldn't show desktop version just because MS didn't allow such things. And so I doubt that any dev could implement adblocker in this program.

Thanks for suggestions
1. OK thanks.
2. I will try to use cloudfox
3. Very nice Idea I will study about adblock mechanism and try to do it.

I publish myy app under yallaappa because my country is not supported by App Hub.

Thanks

desktop mode is not appear as function in WebBrowser control but I will find the way to do it.

Yes there are many limitation of WebBrowser control.

Very nice work - this is the first alternative to the stock IE9 browser that's made me think, "Hmmm, maybe...."

Things I Like:

Disappearing address bar and toolbar - I need to get used to flicking down from the top, but that won't be that hard, and the recovered screen real estate is worth it;

Tabs implemented well - I especially like the fact that, unlike with IE9/Mango, each tab doesn't consume a "slot" in the task switcher - rather, the browser as a whole consumes one slot. (And YES, tab control right on the toolbar again )

I was a little perturbed at first that I couldn't switch out of Mobile view, but on the other hand I really like the way Mobile-aware pages look, so maybe I don't want to now.



A few small nits:

Find on Page would be nice

I think (but you're the designer, and it's a design decision) that the tabs should "wrap" when I'm left- or right-flicking my way through them; that way, I don't have to remember the order I launched them in.

Some links didn't work for me - in a few minutes of browsing, I stumbled onto a couple of links that work fine on the desktop and Mangoe/IE9, but I couldn't follow them in Vable - for an example, go to this site: http://www.salon.com/2011/10/25/what_makes_a_great_looking_jetliner/ and click the "Comments" link at the end of an article.


This is good stuff. I like this.

Thanks,
bob

Very nice work so far. But I prefer using the desktop view, which currently doesn't seem to be supported by vable browser. Should you ever decide to implement it, let me know and you'll have an immediate buyer.

Thank you very much
that the tabs should "wrap" when left- or right-flicking - Good idea I think I will add an option for do it .

Some links didn't work for me - I'm sorry I can not comment on web http://www.salon.com/2011/10/25/what_makes_a_great_looking_jetliner/ with IE 9 by use Facebook or Google ID because it will stuck at page after login as same as in vable browser. Could you give me another site that has this problem?

Thanks

Currently I'm not found a way to change to desktop view. If I can do I will tell you again.

IE9 Mobile's user agent is:

Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 7.0; Windows Phone OS 7.0; Trident/3.1; IEMobile/7.0; <DeviceManufacturer>;<DeviceModel>)

This should be bound to the "mobile option". "Desktop option" should then equal the user agent of a desktop browser. This is the one from IE9:

Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; MSIE 9.0; Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; Trident/5.0)


As far as I remember you can set the user agent of your browser any way you want. Just like this:

var uri = new Uri ("http://some.where");
var request = WebRequestCreator.ClientHttp.Create (uri) as HttpWebRequest;
request.Headers ["user-agent"] = "My user agent string";
request.BeginGetResponse (...);

So by choosing either mobile or desktop version a string with the appropriate user agent string is passed to request.Headers["user-agent"].. If that works, not sure though.
