Updated Browser

Support for things like HTML 4.01, XHTML and Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) makes it a valid browser client for most uses....the update to WML 2.0 is also very welcome. WML 2.0 is mainly the WML 1.x standard converted into XHTML and is also a common mobile phone standard.

The Microsoft JScript® support (JScript 5.5) is now up to the same level as in Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.5, which means that in combination with a more complete document object model (DOM), most scripts written for desktop applications will be able to run on Pocket PC 2003.

The support for the "next generation Internet", IPv6...

On Pocket PC 2003, XML is supported the same way as in Internet Explorer 5. However, there's no backward compatibility with the XML DOM support in Internet Explorer 4 and data binding is not supported. However, there is DOM accessibility for XML via Jscript.

When detecting that a Pocket PC 2003 device is connecting to a Web site, you could look at the new agent string (in Internet Information Server this is provided in the HTTP_USER_AGENT server variable):

Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 4.01; Windows CE; PPC; 240x320)

The imaging support is also considerably improved. The formats PNG, JPEG, GIF, WMBP, 2BP and BMP are natively supported. Also, image maps and animated GIFs can now be used. Through the extensible imaging library third parties can also add support for other formats.
