Shaddex Posted August 27, 2012 Report Share Posted August 27, 2012 We have had numerous web Tickets, ingame chat and posts regarding the net7 site not loading properly using IE9. All we can say is that IE9 is a VERY buggy browser with many issues. Until M$ get there software sorted out, I would suggest using either IE8, FF or Chrome (to name a few) Once M$ have release a fix that resolves the issues that MANY people are having with Javascript etc IE9 will be back on the supported Browser list. The only fix we could do to get IE9 working as it should is to re-write the whole portal to suit it, and im afraid that will not happen due to the months of work the WebDevs have put into the site. Once again, this is a M$ IE9 Bug and not the portal coding. Hope this answers a few questions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zackman [LDEV] Posted August 27, 2012 Report Share Posted August 27, 2012 We've added a header to the portal now to force IE9 to fallback into IE8 comp. mode. Can you people, having problems with the site, please report back if this is helping you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kyp [LDEV] Posted August 28, 2012 Report Share Posted August 28, 2012 Note that most of the problems with web display on any applications older than their browser is typically due to the compatibility mode being enabled in the first place. I don't know why because I haven't read into what it does, but I know it being on screws up a bunch of our web applications in the workplace.

Zackman [LDEV] Posted August 28, 2012 Report Share Posted August 28, 2012 Ya, known. Its not really the comp. mode we are forcing (the IE9 has two diff. "sections" of modes), we are forcing the IE9 to fallback into IE8 mode. This unholy IE...why is it offering certain "compatibility" modes anyway, you wonder.... If your tool is W3C-compliant you dont need any "comp." mode - than the browser should simply obey all (W3C) standards and you wouldnt face any incompatibilites at all. Safari can do this, Mozilla can do this, Google can do this, Webkit can do this....just this "pimple on the .... of the human mankind" (aka "InternetExploder") cannot - since decades! Dont think im biased...no im not...not at all......i am neutral....really !! [size=3][i]Apple, Facebook and IExplorer - all three should be wiped from this planet, without a substitute....let the Asgard deal with it....[/i][/size] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryle [N7R] Posted August 28, 2012 Report Share Posted August 28, 2012 (edited) Ive coded up many a stylesheet in HTML/CSS that would work nifty as hell in IE and not at all in Firefox and the other way around. There used to be tricks to "force" things to work right and get around incompatibilities. But IE has really made it rough, in a sense you almost need a whole different set of webpages in a different style all together to get IE to work. Its retarded. Especially with absolute positioning and DIV/TABLE tags. Its like Y U NO WORK??? Edited August 28, 2012 by Ryle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blattu Posted August 28, 2012 Report Share Posted August 28, 2012 update #2>>> i can see only 3 toons,ones i never use hardly and cannot find like 9 others. i read somewhere about re-syncing my accounts, and this would show them all, but cant find the info again.' the toon vault is really great!! cant wait to clean all my toons up. again ty for the progress B Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Falstar [MOD] Posted September 9, 2012 Report Share Posted September 9, 2012 Really, MS will release IE10 before they fix all the issues with 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silverhawk[IS] Posted September 11, 2012 Report Share Posted September 11, 2012 (edited) IE10 working fine so does IE9 on my system, if you add the proper code to the site ie9 wont be an issue either. also they are not gonna allow win 7 to upgrade to IE10 Edited September 11, 2012 by silverhawk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

silverhawk[IS] Posted September 11, 2012 Report Share Posted September 11, 2012 (edited) ya they informed us a while back that they had no current plans to release 10 to win 7, Ive been running 8 testing for some time, just like all the other operating systems they all stop at a certain IE and it seems MS is planning IE9 to be win 7 stop. Well see. If they send us any more info on releasing it to win 7 ill quickly post it. Hopefully they stay on that course and release it for 7 would be nice.

Kyp [LDEV] Posted September 12, 2012 Report Share Posted September 12, 2012 When the business community refuses to go to Windows 8, they'll get crackin' on those updates. The company I work for has already opted to avoid it so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kyp [LDEV] Posted September 13, 2012 Report Share Posted September 13, 2012 Just sayin' I already know the company isn't interested. MS will have to do something impressive to change that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
