Notes on Pocket Internet Explorer (Windows Mobile 2003 SE)

Quick list of HTML and Javascript properties & standards that are supported in PIE in Windows Mobile 2003 SE (more specifically Pocket PC). The browser itself is a bit outdated nowadays, but seems to be readily available in "industrial-strength" devices.

Method / Function Works (Yes/No) Notes
document.all No HTML elements can only be accessed through dot-notation, so only first level elements under a body tag of a DOM tree can be modified. Exceptions: Form fields can be accessed through form.elements -collection.
element.innerHTML Yes -
XHR (Ajax) Yes new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP")
HTTPS (SSL) Yes Seems to support 128-bit and also unsigned certs
onClick-event Varies Seems to be supported on at least anchors ( A-tag) and images. No support for onClick on DIVs.
element.focus() Yes -
onLoad-event Yes e.g.
<script for="window" event="onload">
    ... code ...
</script>
onkeypress
onkeyup
onkeydown -events
No See onChange-event
onChange -event Yes The browser triggers an onChange-event when a form element loses focus ( Enter/Return is pressed, for example)
