$translateProvider.preferredLanguage() and IE 6, 7, 8

[andrius-kulbis]

Hello,

I'm seeking the as much compability with the old "goodies" IE as possible.
I have the following in my .config() method:

$translateProvider.preferredLanguage(DEFAULT_LANGUAGE);

And get this:

Message: Object doesn't support this property or method
Line: 38
Char: 7
Code: 0
URI: vendor/angular-translate/angular-translate.js

Any solution?

IE6-8 are missing a lot of standards and won't be supported officially here and also in angular.js. In this case it is e.g. String.indexOf ...

Ehm.. IE8 should actually work. IE <8 and AJS can be used only without any support of anyone.

I actually want to write it works in IE8 in our app (however we are dropping IE8 right now), but then I remember we have added some polyfills (here : es5-shim).

@tspaeth When did we drop support support for IE8? :)

[tspaeth]

@knalli nope. Array.prototype.indexOf is missing in IE8 :-) Either we must integrate a "compat" prototype into it or it is not working in IE8.

So as you said, shim might fix these...
