IE7 Beta 2 Preview Available

Article
01/31/2006

The information published in this post is now out-of-date and one or more links are invalid.

—IEBlog Editor, 22 August 2012

If you’re a developer, an IT Pro, or just plain interested, please visit https://www.microsoft.com/windows/ie/ie7/ to try the IE7 Beta 2 Preview.

What’s a beta preview? It’s a release for everyone involved in making the Internet work.

Before we release a consumer-focused beta, we want to make sure anyone with a website can look at the changes we’ve made to our layout engine and the stricter user experience around security certificates. Developers should try out their toolbars, ActiveX controls, and applications that host or rely on the IE platform. IT Pros have their own concerns when a new browser is coming, as do domain registrars (especially with the IDN support), network operators, and many, many other groups. The site has some checklists we’ve written to help people exercise IE7 with their sites and applications. If we missed items you think we should call out, please let us know. We’re looking forward to feedback that will help us deliver a great, consumer-focused beta.

Should everyone install? First and foremost, all the usual warnings about "beta" software apply. Also, while most of the functionality is in place, the user experience is not done. That said -- we welcome your feedback if you try it. The next post will cover the best ways to send us that feedback.

And in case you haven’t been there, https://www.mix06.com/ is still a good site to check out.

- Dean

P.S. Please remember to uninstall any previous IE7 builds before installing this one: Control Panel, Add / Remove Programs, Show Updates, scroll to the bottom.

Can someone clarify for me whether I have the ability to fallback to IE6 if I don't like it?
Anonymous

Andy, this preview is designed to help site & control authors verify that their sites work with IE7, so we chose to release on XPSP2 only with this preview. We expect to have a Server 2003 version available at Beta 2.

For developers to continue doing their developing jobs we need to be able to run Internet Explorer 6 AND 7 simultaneously. Can we do that with this install? If not, then it's ultimately pointless installing it.

Yes, you can uninstall this preview. Please note that side-by-side installs with IE6 is not and will not be supported with IE7.

I guess my point is, if I uninstall IE7, what am I left with? Do I also have to download IE6?

If you uninstall IE7, you will revert to what you had installed before, which I presume is the version of IE6 in XP Service Pack 2 for most people.

Hi, where can I post problems with pages? I'm really afraid of IE7 because one of my clients website is totally broken in IE7 b2.

This happends to us in Firefox 1.5 beta, but there was only one issue. In IE7 b2 is almost every piece of site moved in some way and I think will have to do another hacking only for new IE.

Jeff,
no, IE6 will be re-installed when you uninstall IE7, automatically. I've done this a number of times as I've upgraded my installs of IE7.

Also, to clarify Christopher's comment - we do not officially support side-by-side between IE6 and IE7. You can get the rendering engines running together in a hacky fashion using the .local trick, but if you really want both running on the same hardware, I do recommend using Virtual PC.

Jeff, you're left with IE6 as you had it before you installed IE7. You won't have to re-download or re-install IE6.

It looks great and also works great so far with my website's coding.Now i really can't wait to have the full version of IE 7 on my pc.Thanks again MS keep up the good work.
Anonymous
January 01, 2003
Not being able to run 6 and 7 side by side makes our lives incredibly cumbersome. Why should I have to install VirtualPC just to run them? Do you like making our jobs difficult? Trust me, allow developers to run these things side by side and you'll win a great many points with all of us.

Now, thanks to this not being possible, I have to wait until someone finds a reliable "hacky" way to run these simultaneously. Way to go folks...

Installed the preview and rebooted my machine (XP SP2). When clicking the IE 7 icon on my desktop, browser starts (is visible maybe a fraction of a second) and then the it closes itself. So IE 7 is not working at all. Any ideas ?

This is stupid. There is no other word to describe it.

Will installing this version completely shaft any apps that use wininet.dll, in much the same way as beta 1 did?

It would be really nice to install IE7 parallel to other versions, like it is possible with other older versions using some "IEXPLORE.exe.local" file.

I have tested the same with IE7 and the uncompressed "IE7B2P-WindowsXP-x86-enu.exe" but it seems not to be really possible. The window opens, but closes directly after this short opening.

What's about to allow webdevelopers to have an ability to use both version together. Otherwise it's just not realistic to really test or create IE7 compatible pages. Sorry.

There were no differences in IE between 5296 and 5299, so I strongly recommend that you use the official downloads vs. ones you may have found out there.

For those who are interested, Windows is divided into many smaller build labs to isolate changes between teams during development. When we merge our changes into the main Windows branch, the major build number gets incremented. IE didn't merge any changes between 5296 and 5299 nor did we accept any changes from other teams.

I too can't install. I did get an error dialog indicating system32msfeeds.dll process or procedure could not be found.

Did a search on machine and didn't find it. Checked release notes and didn't see any reference to this issue.

If I go through the main.log, I see
"Internet Explorer installation completed with errors, exitresults=0x0000000, exitcode=0x0000005

Hope this helps. If there is someplace you want me to send logs, holler.

It's not that great. At first it gave me a msfeed.dll error. Then I unpacked the exe and tried to install from update.exe and my system is totally jacked up now. Security settings are messed up. I am logged on as Administrator and WindowsSp2 won't install cause it says I don't have permissions. Sheesh.

I went back to 6 because I couldn't move the toolbars to where I wanted them, some of the buttons wouldn't show up on the toolbar because of the tabs area, and because several things i was used to doing in 6 with one click took me two, three or more clicks to do in 7. I also found it difficult to find a place on the toolbars I could right click to customize them in the first place. I don't think this is a very promising step forward, especially with Opera available.

Glad it's out - to bad that I'm a professional with a job that requires I test my sites in today's CURRENT browsers, so there is no way I'll be able to install IE7.

Still testing, and I while I see general improvements, I'm disappointed with it's subtle improvements at best, though it's positive to see any progress at all now.

We have to address this, who are you hiring for your designers? This:
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/ie/ie7/default.mspx

Is not attractive. Neither is the interface or the placement of the elements. You've broken some designer 101 errors, and I'm just not understanding what is wrong with Microsofts design -- you can get the talent, why don't you?

I'm a developer in XML and SVG(Scalable Vector Graphics. I am quite pleased with IE7's continuing support of SVG. My site runs nicely with IE7.

Is it possible for the Adobe ActiveX for their SVG viewer, version 3 be included in the IE7 package? This would provide incentive for SVG developers to use IE7 as their development environment. If viewer's didn't have to download this as plugin, we would be happy as clams:)

Thanks,

As a developer, I'm quite frustrated that IE7 still doesn't recognize the min-height attribute. My other major complaints have already been voiced, so I'll move on.

As a user, the interface is horrible... it's practically unusable. Apart from the classic toolbar, you can't even customize it so that it emulates the half decent interface of IE6, let alone an above average interface like that of Firefox or Opera.

I guess I'll use this as an opportunity to vent a minor frustration that could be fixed in this version.

When a viewer makes an option selection, why not unfocus that <select>? Presently, if they happen to scroll after their selection, the darn select runs rampant through it options, causing a mess.

(I fix this artificially by focusing on something else on the page, after the viewer has made their option selection. I guess I can continue to do this without loosing an sleep)

I normally would have unloaded IE7 after I gave it a few tests, but I surely like the rendering. So, I'm keeping it onboard for awhile.

I wanted to go back to a URL I had previously visited, and I hunted for a history button, but couldn't find it. If it's there, my intuition doesn't grab it.

The very, very top banner area, that has the title of the web page, along with the max, min and close buttons could be used more effectively. Personally, 99.9% of the time, I know what I'm looking at, and don't need that information.

Seriously, think about this:
Place all your buttons along that bar, in a consistant design.

This will relinquish space to support the power viewers of today in their ability to navigate to the half dozen or so web pages they may have open. Your Quick tabs and the buttons to select each page are definitely needed, and should be reinforced.

I do so much weird stuff on my site, I hate to blame IE7 for some of my doings...but here goes.

My Internet Option Settings request a new file read at each visit.

I can't access recently changed XML files to make my site work. It keeps grabbing older files and will not replace them with the updated files. I've cleaned out the temp files a few times. When I request the updated file, It reloads old copies. I have absolutely no idea where these older files reside. The're surely not on my server.

It seems that they are not removed from the temp internet files, and override/ignore my request for updated files.

Even though I removed these files from the temp internet files, the darn things still show up when I do a search with Windows Explorer.

This happened during IE7, so I removed it and went back to IE6, but it is still stuck using the older files.

This did not occur, initially when I used IE7 for about a week, but just recently happened.

Hi, can you please tell me how long the Beta is available for and what happens afterwards? Is the proper version immediately issued, if so, does anyone know when this may be?

Not only can I not uninstall the beta version, it is also not possible to even remove it! I tried Add/Remove, I tried correcting the registry, I tried a Windows XP Professional sp2 repair using the installation CD, I tried removing the IE folder from the Windows root directory Program Files and installing a fresh downloaded IE ver 6.0. The Beta version remains my only version of IE! Short of completely reinstalling my Windows XP Pro sp2 OS, I can find no way of reverting back to IE 6.0.

Now having said this, I should point out that the reason I wanted to revert back was not because I am disappointed with the beta version. Actually, I am quite happy with it. I used three tabbed windows to write this letter! However, I like using the Auto-Hide in full-screen mode, and in the beta version you are unable to close a tab without first switching to normal view. Using IE 6.0 in full-screen (F11) with Auto-Hide enabled you still have all the features of normal view, but they are hidden (on demand), much like the Taskbar is using the same Auto-Hide feature. This is the only reason I wanted to switch back and at this point I am not ready to do a complete reinstall of my OS.
