One of the most useful features of Iguana is that it can be installed easily and quickly. Iguana has no complicated external dependencies, and has no problems interacting with other applications. In particular, Iguana provides an embedded web server, which means that it does not require you to install and configure a web server such as Apache or IIS. | ||

If you are using Internet Explorer 7.0, or a legacy version of Iguana for which Internet Explorer 6 is supported, you will need to enable ActiveX on your browser. In these browsers, the AJAX code that Iguana uses to implement some of its features requires the use of the Microsoft.XMLHTTP ActiveX component. | ||
