R Shiny pages on IE10

Question

I have a windows machine. I use R shiny (R 3.0.1 and Shiny 0.10.2.1) to share some apps with others on the same network.

Just running an app using runApp("some_app") works fine on chrome/IE10 but not of much use because others on the network can't access it. When I run using: runApp("some_app", host="XX.XXX.XX.XXX", port=3456), others can access the page but can't see any reactive output only on IE10.

Any idea what would be the problem with reactive output on IE10 when I use my computer's ip while it works okay on chrome?

Many Thanks Pradeep

I'm not an expert, but my impression is that a lot of things don't work in IE, especially things that are new / cool.

A quick google search provided some helpful links, especially this one on shiny's google group.

If people really can't use Chrome or Firefox, I would consider having people connect to a remote server that does have Chrome installed.
