Editing Tasman (browser engine) (section)

== Version history ==
The first version of Tasman (referred to as "v0") was released with ''Internet Explorer 5 Macintosh Edition'' on March 27, 2000.  An upgraded version (version 0.1) followed on with the release of ''Internet Explorer 5.1 for Mac''.

On May 15, 2003, Microsoft released the subscription-only [[MSN for Mac OS X]] browser, which used an upgraded version of Tasman (version 0.9) as its layout engine.  In a posting to the ''Mac Internet Explorer Talk'' list, Internet Explorer for Mac program manager [[Jimmy Grewal]] listed improvements:

* Full [[Unicode]] support
* Improved [[Cascading Style Sheets|CSS]] support, with CSS 3 Selectors, CSS TV Profile and @media
* Improved [[Document Object Model|DOM]] support with DOM 1 Core and DOM 2 Core, Style, and Events.  Also improved compatibility with Windows IE DOM.
* [[XHTML]] 1.0 and 1.1 support, although it is not activated in MSN for Mac OS X.
* Better support for Mac OS X features such as [[Quartz (graphics layer)|CoreGraphics]], [[Apple Type Services for Unicode Imaging|ATSUI]] and [[Core Foundation|CFSocket]] networking.

For a while Tasman was improved as part of a number of TV set-top box projects at Microsoft reaching version 1.0. The Tasman engine is now used in the [[Microsoft TV]] [[Mediaroom]] Edition. 

On May 11, 2004, Microsoft started shipping [[Microsoft Office|Microsoft Office 2004 for Mac]] which incorporates a version of the Tasman layout engine in its email client [[Microsoft Entourage|Entourage]].<ref>{{cite web | url=http://blogs.msdn.com/omars/archive/2004/04/05/107468.aspx | title=Entourage: A journey to becoming an Office application | author=Omar Shahine | date=April 5, 2004 | work=Omar Shahine's weblog | access-date=2007-04-01}}</ref><ref>{{cite web | url=http://tantek.com/log/2004/06.html#d29t1850 | title=Subject: Moving on...; To: co-workers | author=Tantek Çelik | date=June 29, 2004 | work=Tantek's Thoughts | access-date=2007-04-01}}</ref> Since [[Microsoft Office for Mac 2011]], Entourage has been replaced by the Macintosh version of [[Microsoft Outlook]] which uses a [[WebKit]]-based layout engine (used by [[Safari (web browser)|Safari]]) instead.<ref>{{cite web | url=http://www.9to5mac.com/32191/outlook-2011-uses-webkit-to-render-html | title=Outlook 2011 uses Webkit to render HTML | date=2010-10-25 | access-date=2010-11-19 }}</ref> [[Microsoft Edge]], the successor to Internet Explorer, uses the [[Blink (browser engine)|Blink]] engine on [[macOS]] and [[WebKit]] on [[iOS]]/[[iPadOS]].
