Although administrative tasks on SharePoint sites are optimized for level 1 browsers, Office SharePoint Server 2007 also provides rendering support for other browsers that are commonly used. To ensure that you have complete access to all the functionality, we recommend that you use a level 1 browser for administrative tasks.
Level 1 Web browsers5
– Win 2000, Win XP, Win2003, Vista client with IE6 or IE7
Level 2 Web browsers6
– Win 2000, Win XP, Win2003, Vista client with Firefox 1.5, Mozilla 1.7 or Netscape 8.1
– Unix/Linus with Firefox 1.5 or Netscape 7.2
– Mac OS-X with Firefox 1.5 or Safari 2.0
If a browser is not listed in either level 1 or level 2, it is not supported.

1 Farm deployment requires 2 GB RAM; 4 GB recommended for SQL and Application Servers.
2 Office SharePoint Server 2007 requires DVD Drive, local or network accessible.
3 Farm deployment requires SQL Server 2000 SP3a or higher. SQL 2005 SP1 or later and SQL 2005 Analysis Services SP1 or later required for some advanced features.
4 Web browser support is divided into two levels: level 1 and level 2; 32-bit browser only.
5 Level 1 Web browsers take advantage of advanced features provided by ActiveX controls and provide the most complete user experience. Level 1 browsers offer full functionality on all SharePoint sites, including the Central Administration Web site.
6 Level 2 Web browsers provide basic functionality, so that users can both read and write in SharePoint sites and perform site administration. However, because ActiveX controls are supported only in level 1 browsers and due to the functionality differences within different browsers, a different user experience might be provided and there could be some variances from the user experience from the level 1 browsers. |
