This tip gives a method to update mpc.htc code to js because IE10 standard mode doesn't support htc (Html Components).

Introduction

This tip gives a method to update mpc.htc code to js because IE10 standard mode doesn't support htc (HTML Components) again.

Background

To learn more about mpc.htc, please refer to the article in MSDN: MPC Behavior.

Using the Code

The idea is to save mpc.htc as mpc.js, and modify the code in it one by one.

The main changes are as follows:

  1. Change all PROPERTY to JavaScript var.
  2. Remove some useless Event and Method.
  3. Add a new DoBeforeInit() function, and invoke it before DoInit() function.
  4. Add a new ChangeTab() function to switch in tab pages.
  5. Modify DoInit(), MakeContent(), MakeTab() and so on.

Please see the final ie10_mp2c_htc.js code as follows:

In HTML, you need to invoke the DoBeforeInit() in form onload().

The HTML code that uses ie10_mp2c_htc.js is as follows:

HTML
    <HTML xmlns:mpc="mpc">
    <HEAD>
    <TITLE ></TITLE>
    <META http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=9" />        
    <SCRIPT language="javascript" src="
    ie10_mp2c_htc.js" type="text/javascript">
    </SCRIPT>        
    </HEAD>
    <BODY onload="DoBeforeInit()">
    <FORM method="post" >
        <mpc:container xmlns:mpc="mpc" STYLE="top:25; width:600px; height:480px">

Conclusion

With this tip and the previous tip: Update .htc (HTML Components) custom attributes to js since IE10 standard mode doesn't support htc again, we can draw a conclusion that though IE10 standard mode doesn't support htc again, we can still update the old code to js and reuse it.

I think it's the best evidence of the adage:
If God closes the door for you, he must open the window somewhere else.
