The UI development toolkit for HTML5 (SAPUI5) is a control library based on CSS3, HTML5 and the new JavaScript API. That's why only browsers with HTML5 capabilities are supported.

The following browsers are supported for Microsoft Windows platforms only:
Microsoft Internet Explorer 9 and upwards, so including Microsoft Internet Explorer 10
Mozilla Firefox 10 (aka Firefox Extended Support Release - ESR) and latest version
Google Chrome latest version
The following browser is only supported for MAC OS X:
Safari 5.1 and upwards
Internet Explorer 8 (IE8): There are degradations in visual design and over time also restricted functionality.
For more information, see
Internet Explorer 6 and 7 are not supported. All browsers not mentioned above are also not supported.
The VIZ charting library (sap.viz) relies on the open source component D3 which in turn relies on the availability of Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG). As SVG is not supported by IE8 and not fully supported by FF ESR, the VIZ charting library is also not supported on those browsers.
