Bugs with IE with the Free version

Archived Robin 11 years ago

Hi,

The application is working great on Google Chrome but it seem to have a lot of bugs within Internet Explorer 8.

First of all I have issues with the Default Theme and the css. Some blocks are not displayed correctly (See the example in attachment).


And furthermore it seem to have a lot of bug with the menus and button. Probably with the Ajax, some button don't work (The browse button for the community logo for example, or also for example I can't switch language from IE)

I was thinking of buying the corporate version, but does it support IE better ?


Thanks.

Hi,

We bought and installed the corporate version for our company.

We still have the same issues with Internet Explorer. Lot of bugs with the theme and somes actions doesn't work.


But it's weird because when I tried the online demo with IE it works fine. So I did some test : my problems happen with a IIS installation on a windows server 2008.

I tried to install the corporate version with an apache on my localcomputer and it work fine.


So, I was wondering if the problems could be from my IIS installation ? It's weird because it seem to be a client-side bug.


I will try to make a Wamp installation on my windows server to see if it's related.


(PS: I use a windows server because in our company linux servers are with redhat, and redhat doesn't seem to have the good updated version of PCRE in the official repository, it's kind a problem...)

Hi,

If you have bugs in IE, it should be related to client side of a problem. Weird that you have it on one environment and don't have it on another one

Let us know how it works on Wamp

I tried with a wamp installation on the server.

I have the same problem.


It is really weird indeed, because with a local install of wamp it works well.

It is a really big problem for us, the application must run on IE.


I will try to investigate more...

Ok I found the problem.

By default IE execute application in an "Intranet mode" if the webserver is on a local network.

It runs the page with a "Browser Mode :IE8 Compat View" and a "Document Mode: IE7 Standards" (see attachment)


I fixed the issue by forcing the "internet mode" with the application. I added thoses line in the web.config :


  1. <httpProtocol>
  2. <customHeaders>
  3. <clear />
  4. <add name="X-UA-Compatible" value="IE=edge" />
  5. </customHeaders>
  6. </httpProtocol>

Now it's work.

I still have some css issues though, but I should be able to fix that.


Thanks you.

There is bugs with the javascript on IE8.

This line doesn't work:

  1. elements = document.getElementsByClassName("share-block");

"getElementsByClassName" is not supported by IE8

Niborg,

Could you attach a screen with error information such as file and line number to be able us to fix it in next version.

For the bug with the getElementsByClassName it seem to be in the javascript for the "share" functions (see file1).


Also, I have a bug with the "title" of Home and Top as you can see in the second screen shot. They act like if they were always "on hover"

Another bug : I set up LDAP authentication. It works great.

However now I disabled Facebook, Google, Twitter Login plus (remove all the <default key>). Since then, when I log in with ldap I have a bug with the redirection after succesful log in. I'm redirected to a blank page with the default theme.

If I reset "login plus" parameters, there is no problem.


How can i fix that ?


Thanks
