Is there a work-around to opening this "IE 5.5" only website? I thought about installing a duel-OS just for winXP for the browser but I think thats just overkill.

Thanks in advance...
 
Tell them that their lack of support for users running a non-Windows environment is ridiculous, and take your business elsewhere?

MS stopped supporting IE for Macs in what, late 2005? So the site you're trying to reach is 2-3 years out of date. From a business perspective, that's disconcerting.

I would love to take my business elsewhere, unfortunately I'm a real estate agent, and this site is exclusive to agents...No site, no work:(
 
So, is this just the MLS listings, but Toronto specific? If so, why not just use the main MLS listings? Sorry, I'm not in the industry, so I don't know the difference between these two.

As for the browser compatibility, the fact that the site is not updated should still be a warning to you as a business person. You're right when you say "no site, no work," but as someone who (presumably) pays for that service, think about the fact that you're work is now dependent on technology that the service provider is too lazy to upgrade. That's not a healthy business relationship for you as a customer, nor for your customers.
 
At least I do not get the unsupported browser message when I try it with Opera

But I'm not registered - so can't try logging in
 
TorontoMLS - Mac

Found this on the MLS site, in Tips & Tricks:

TorontoMLS MacIntosh Users
Members who wish to access TorontoMLS from a MacIntosh operating system can now do so with the new Safari Browser and OS10.2 using a software enhancer and debugger. Without this software MacIntosh users will experience limited TMLS functionality. For more information regarding this browser please visit http://www.apple.com/safari/. To download the enhancer please visit http://gordon.sourcecod.com/safari_enhancer.php, to download the debugger please visit http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/17952&vid=103820. TorontoMLS is a PC operational system and therefore TREB support staff are qualified to answer all PC related inquires.

Need to figure out how to use the MLS on my iPhone. Hope this helps!
 
Better info...
