CGI:IRC is known to work well on Internet Explorer and Mozilla based browsers.
| Browser | Works? |
| Mozilla (netscape 6) | Javascript interface works except some shortcut keys and pop-out formating buttons. |
| Netscape 4.x | Works - using non-js interface |
| Mozilla Firefox 1.0 | Works perfectly |
| Mozilla Firefox 1.5 | Works perfectly |
| Internet Explorer >= 6 | Fully works |
| Internet Explorer >= 5 | (Almost) Fully works |
| Older Versions of Internet Explorer | Not tested |
| Opera <=7 | Works with non-js interface but some scrolling problems |
| Opera 8+ | Works OK. Opera 9 is better, even works with Opera on Nintendo Wii! |
| KDE Konqueror | Konqueror 3 works with 0.5.2+, konqueror 3.2 works better |
| Safari | Works on recent versions. Had problems with streaming, however Safari 2 (i.e. Mac OSX Tiger) and Safari 1.3 (to some extent) are reported to support it (it seems to be related the CFNetwork loader, this can be changed in the Debug menu (by disabling the Simple Loader), unfortunately the changes aren't remembered). |
| Safari on iPhone | Works, although cannot see channel while typing due to keyboard hiding it. See a picture. |
| Links | Works (amazingly) |
| Nokia 3650 | Reportedly works! |
| Windows Mobile 2003 IE | Works, although there are scrolling and focus issues (and the screen is too small) |
