The question says it all. Inter Explorer's lack of standard compliance has struck, and driven me to the brink of madness. Does anyone know of a Firebug equivalent for IE8?
Hi,
When developing for the web, one of the saddest issue might be crossbrowser testing. Is there a great solution for testing both on IE6, IE7, IE8, Chrome, Safari and Firefox ?
I tried some web-based solutions but it's not really usable when working offline.
Thx
Boris
I need to get client stats for browser (not full long description but short names, generally firefox,ie6,ie7,ie8,safari,chrome,opera and mozilla). Client resolution and OS ie. Windows Vista, Ubuntu ....
thanks
I have written a BHO and a toolbar for Internet Explorer in C#. They are getting installed and working properly. In the manage add-ons window in IE8, I am able to see both my BHO and toolbar. But, the publisher name of both is set to "Control name is not available". How can I set the publisher name?
jqGrid and IE8 are not making friends... ( the jqgrid is invisible in the IE, sometime when the mouse is over it, it appears, but still after sec it disappears.
in FF, Chrome, Opera it works fine.
is there a good explanation for this??
The Preview, What others are saying tabs are stacked and right-aligned (wrong).
They should be horizontal and left-aligned.
It's displayed correctly in firefox,IE8.
What's the reason for this?

I have input boxes with a height of 25 pixels. In Firefox, Safari and IE8 automatically vertically align the text of it in the middle correctly.
However in IE6 and IE7 the text is aligned to the top.
How may I resolve this? Adding padding-top increased the total height of the input as I have explicitly declared its height.
I don't wish to use browser specific CSS.
Thanks.
When I submit a form, I can see my browser's progress bar slowly increased, it takes 4-6s to submit a form.
It was a generic form like :
<form id="someid" name="someName" action="someAction.do">
...
</form>
I test it in IE8 and Firefox 3,both are very slow.
My network condition is fine, my server works great.
What could be the problem?

Because IE won't do document.getElementById(ID).setAttribute('type','password') I've re-engineered the way the password field woirks on this site:
http://devdae.dialanexchange.com/Default.aspx
so it works in accordance with this idea:
http://www.folksonomy.org/2009/01/12/changing-input-type-from-text-to-password-in-internet-explorer-hack/
It works fine in IE8 and FF3. It breaks in IE7 just as you click into the password field. I'm now tearing my hair out. Can anyone give me a clue what's wrong as IE7's diagnosis is just "Object expected, code 0"?
I have this code that it is working on firefox and chrome, but in IE8/IE7 it's not working.
The server is not been reached ever.
$("#adicionarItem").click(function(){
$.ajax({
type: 'GET',
url: $("#formAdicionaItem").attr("action"),
data: $("#formAdicionaItem").serialize(),
success: function(result){
//do something
}
}
});
});
Does anyone has any idea what is wrong?
Thanks
With the following simple mark-up, I get very strange behaviour in FF and IE8. If I give the textbox focus, and tab out, nothing happens. If I give a user name value, and erase it immediately, nothing happens. However, only when I supply a user name, tab away, the erase it and tab away again, do I finally get a red star "required" mark. The summary doesn't show at all.
I am calling this from ie8:
function verify_ssl()
{
window.open ("https://seal.godaddy.com/verifySeal?sealID=129275340046e2e09512711f05bc73f617fac022950185486622550",
"ssl-window","status=0,toolbar=0,menubar=0,resizable=0,width=540,height=435");
}
It says invalid argument, It works fine in FF and Chrome. Any idea what the issue is in IE?
Hi, i'm trying to get min-width to work on ie7, funny thing is it works correctly on ie6 using this script http://code.google.com/p/ie7-js/ but it doesn't work on ie7 even with the ie8 or ie9 scripts from the same site, any ideas on how to make this property work on a SELECT input?
thanks in advance.
My layout breaks if I change the window size in IE7/AOL, so I added a simple javascript function that fires on window.onresize, but no matter how I change the location I get problems.
It was suggested I post a link and here it is:
link text
I already use PHP to detect browser and include an IE7-only inline stylesheet (and for mobile browsers), and my page looks nearly identical to the way it does in FF, Opera, Chrome, Safari and IE8, but when I change the window size, some things go wonky, and come back into line if you refresh. Any advice is welcome :)
My HTML page contains many tables,with numerous tr and td. While rendering in IE8/IE9 the
its very slow but in Firefox its fast. I had read somewhere while drawing tables if the tables are not of fixed width, IE calculates the width every time and renders so usually slow.
Right now i am adding Table style="table-layout:fixed" which made me feel its faster.
Are there any similar styles that can be added to tr and td as well.Also
suggest if there any other attribtes that can be added to a table
select,option{text-align:center;}
works in FF, but not in IE(at least 8.0), how could I make sure that the text align in the center for IE8.0? Thanks!!!
I have an iframe in b.com which attempts to grab the jQuery library from a.com [my website]. Whenever it does this I get the "Access is Denied" error in both IE7 and IE8.
I have checked out Fiddler and it doesnt show that the script is getting blocked - but IE does errors with "Access is Denied"
What is causing this prob and how to get around it ?
Thx
I have a parent page and a child page.
By using window.opener.parent property,I am able to read the parent page content and display it in the child page.(There is a PREVIEW button on parent page,on click of which the child page opens up as a popup and displays the content of parent page controls.)
This functionality was working fine in IE7/Mozilla/IE6 but I am unable to locate why its not workin with IE8. Can anyone please help?
If you go to the "Variable Grid System" generator
and have:
column width = 20
number of columns = 12
and gutter width = 60
...the system provides a content width
of 900 and a full width of 960.
http://www.spry-soft.com/grids/
Now, this is all fine and dandy in Firefox, Chrome,
and even IE6, but when you load those settings in IE8,
you end up with the actual full width as 1000px,
not 960px.
Has this issue been encountered before?
Here is the code I am using to setup the form:
<% using (Ajax.BeginForm("SaveCroppedPhoto", new { Id = Model.memberId.GetValueOrDefault() }, new AjaxOptions
{
OnBegin = "ProfileOnBegin",
OnComplete = "ProfileOnComplete",
OnFailure = "ProfileOnFailure",
OnSuccess = "ProfileOnSuccess"
}, new { id = "cropPhotoForm" })) {%>
My action result returns a json result as follow:
return Json(new { success });
In IE8 when the action returns, it tries to download the result. The content type coming back is application/json. Anyone have any idea how to stop IE from trying to download the result?
Hi All,
What would be the ultimate web application browser compatibility test machine be? The testing environment would be (XP: IE6,FF3.6), (XP: IE7,Chrome), (XP: IE8,Safari), (MacOsX: Safari, FF3.6, Chrome), (Ubuntu: FF3.6, Chrome)
Of course I want it all in one machine, my initial thought was Using a MacOsX as a host machine and use virtual box to install 3 xp and one ubuntu on it.
Do you think it is an optimal solution? Do you have any better solution to achieve the above?
What is Logically correct and W3C valid way to clear float?
zoom:1 is not valid by W3C and IE8 don't have hash layout problem
overflow:hidden and overflow:hidden
were not made to do this,as the spec
intended overflow to be used
<div class="clear"/> is not
semantically correct and i don't want to add extra markup.
clearfix hack generates content that
really hasn’t any semantic value.
I've asked many questions and read many articles on this issue but haven't find best way.
Hi - I'm trying to open a file located on a networkshare by giving the anchor tag path =
file://///servername/folder/file.docx
This works in IE8 and i'm able to open the file in word, however in Firefox nothing happens. I believe it's due to some secruity settings in Firefox. I tried about:config and turning off the checkloaduri value. But it didnt solve the problem.
Does anyone know how I can make this work in both IE and Firefox.
