Is it possible to use Dojo 1.10 on a "file:///"-served web application with IE and/or Chrome?
Firefox doesn't seem to have a problem, however, I cannot get this to work IE 10+ or any recent version of Chrome.

Does anyone know how to detect selenium/webdriver browsing on my site?
I don't want to block them, just detect them.
I saw this question:
Can a website detect when you are using selenium with chromedriver?
But trying all of these on latest version didn't seem to work.
Any body knows anything else?
P.S. please don't leave answers/comments of "dont block"/"you are looking in the wrong place" - I am fully aware of what I'm asking and what will be the business logic to use it.
-- EDIT --
Things I have tested from the link above:
detecting cdc_asdjflasutopfhvcZLmcfl_ key on elements, mostly on window and document but some other elements we have across the entire site.
Searching for window.navigator.webdriver always returns undefined instead of true (tested on both chrome and firefox although only firefox said to support it)
tested the script from this answer: https://stackoverflow.com/a/45814390/1593987
All tests were done using latest selenium, browsers (firefox and chrome), and latest webdriver plugins. for now only on windows, but will probably test ubuntu as well.
In recent versions of Selenium WebDriver it's handled on a spec level.
There is a read-only JS property - navigator.webdriver which is true in case webdriver is used to control browser.
Checked with Chrome v73 - returns true.

I am successfully using the Conductor framework to scrape data off a website. I use the Chrome browser and therefore I have installed chromedriver.exe in the root of my project.
To speed things up I want to replace Chrome with the headless PhantomJS browser. I installed PhantomJS as explained in the answer to this Stackoverflow question: PhantomJS & Conductor Framework and have changed the browser to Browser.PHANTOMJS in #Config.
Whatever I do however, I get no results.
I found no documentation how to setup PhantomJS for use with Selenium or PhantomJS.
The question How to Implement Selenium WebDriver with PhantomJS and Can we Use Sikuli with PhantomJS? did not help either.
How to replace Chrome with PhantomJS for use with Selenium and Conductor?
The trouble you are having appears to be due to an older version of the PhantomJS library included in Conductor. The error when running PhantomJS can be found in this imported issue on the Selenium Github. The remedy is to import a fork of PhantomJS which works with the newer releases of Selenium.
You can easily implement this by editing the pom.xml file and swapping
<groupId>com.github.detro</groupId>
<artifactId>phantomjsdriver</artifactId>
<version>${phantomjs_version}</version>
with
<groupId>com.codeborne</groupId>
<artifactId>phantomjsdriver</artifactId>
<version>1.2.1</version>
You can use a headless chrome driver with selenium, as showed here:

I am currently working on Selenium Grid to automate cross platform functionality and using selenium-server-standalone-2.31.0.jar. When i am using Firefox 22.0 it is working properly but not supporting Firefox 27.0. I have tried with selenium jar version 2.37 ,2.38 and 2.39 but the issue still exists. Which version of selenium-server-standalone jar supports latest Firefox versions ?
I was trying on Firefox 27.0. Selenium grid doesnt support it. I just tried on other browser versions and it's working.
Phantomjs is webkit based. That means of the major browsers it's really only emulating Chrome, right? Does it provide a mechanism (or is there a way to force it) to provide sufficient test coverage for other browsers, aside from wrapping it in Selenium?
No. Current PhantomJS is a version of WebKit that is roughly equivalent to Chrome 13 or Safari 5.1, but it is neither of those browsers. (Chrome and Safari behave differently too.) (BTW, PhantomJS 2.0 is hopefully going to have the webkit separately linkable, so you can use different versions.)
If you move to using CasperJS, then your same script can (usually) run with each of PhantomJS and SlimerJS, which will give you test coverage for both WebKit and Gecko (Firefox). SlimerJS also allows you to directly use a local installation of Firefox instead of the supplied Gecko engine, if you wanted to test against different Firefox versions.
does a dojo application supports all the web browsers if java script is used in it?
Take a look at Dojo 1.6 release notes.
Supported browsers:
Firefox 3.6
Safari 4/Safari 5 and Chrome 8
IE6, IE7, IE8
Opera 10.50 and later (Dojo core only)
So, not "all" browsers are supported, but the most popular ones are.
