Hello everyone,

We are managing a few more sites that are running on XOOPS 2.0.9 and 2.0.13 over IE7/Windows XP.

We will be implementing IE9/Windows 7 in the office gradually within the year and would like to know if the XOOPS versions that we're running right now would have any issues with the new OS and browser.

Thanks and rgds.

The only Xoops related issue I have had with IE9 is that it clears form data if a module includes a 'back' button. There's some more info in this thread.

I'm not sure from your post whether these are public sites, or on an intranet?. If they are public, I would highly recommend upgrading your Xoops 2.0.9 site as it had some vulnerabilities. AFAIK there are no issues with Xoops 2.0.13, but I would look out for modules that included the SPAW editor. Some versions of that editor were insecure and it was popular at that time.

If you are staying with a PHP-4 web server, most old modules should survive an upgrade to Xoops 2.0.18.2 which is stable and reliable.

The latest version of Xoops needs PHP-5.

I see. These are primarily intranet sites. We are already on PHP-5. Thanks for the info. Will discuss vulnerabilities with the group to plan next steps.
