PubMed browser compatibility

NCBI has completed work on a new system that forms the foundation for the next generation of new features and capabilities for PubMed and the other NCBI databases. Users may need to upgrade or change to another browser.

PubMed has been tested on the following browsers although other versions may work without difficulties:

Browsers that have been exhaustively tested:

• Windows: IE 7.0, IE 6.0, Firefox 2.0, Opera 9
• Macintosh: Safari 2.0 on OSX 10.4, FireFox 2.0 on OS X 10.2-10.4, Opera 9
• Solaris (Sun OS 10): FireFox 2.0, Opera 9

Browsers that have been tested and seem to work reasonably well:

• Windows: FireFox 1.5, SeaMonkey 1.1.2, Netscape 8.2 & 9.0
• Macintosh: FireFox 1.5, iCab on OS 9 (with some problems)

Browsers that do not work well and should be upgraded:

• Windows: Netscape 7.2, Mozilla 1.7, IE 5.0, IE 5.5 SP2
• Macintosh: Safari, all pre 2.0 versions, Mozilla 1.7, IE (Microsoft no longer supports Macintosh IE, please try another browser such as Safari, FireFox or iCab)
