Internet Explorer app?

[Karen Phelps]

Hey guys,
I just got the Motorola Xoom with Android OS and my work requires the use of a website that was made specifically for use with internet explorer and when I try to access it through other browsers (ex. firefox, opera, dolphin, etc), it tells me that the site was "specifically designed for Internet Explorer versions 6.0 or greater. Your browser version is not supported. To download the latest version of Internet Explorer, visit the Internet Explorer Downloads Web site."

Of course, one cannot just simply download internet explorer to an android tablet, so I was wondering if there is any workaround - some browser that can trick the site into thinking that it *is* IE, or maybe an IE app of some kind...

Any help would be appreciated!

In Dolphin, did you try changing the user agent to Internet Explorer?

In Dolphin, did you try changing the user agent to Internet Explorer?

In Dolphin, it gives me the following choices for user agent selection:
Android (default)
Desktop
iPhone
iPad
Custom

The Desktop option didn't work, and when I go to Custom it gives me an empty box to write in... I'm not sure if I need a special IE code or something to put in there...?

If the desktop version of dolphin or skyfire doesn't work then I haven't seen an alternate to IE.

Did you ever find an answer to your question? I am still trying to find a browser which will allow me access to one of our internal systems but have not been completely successful. The closest I got was Firefox with an "agent" plug-in which allowed me to log in to the site but I was unable to click on any selections once in.
