hello, i'm quite new to web development (esp. java) and crashed head-on into a huge concrete wall: backwards (read: internet explorer) compatibility. the target group of the web page i'm working on is likely to be using IE8 even after win xp support runs out. i am creating a photo gallery for that web page, but it won't run on ie8. it runs on ie9 and all other browsers.
here's a test gallery: http://yesteam.de/fgt/ ie8 (on windows xp sp3 in a virtual machine on a linux host) returns this error: [quote] Webpage error details User Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 8.0; Windows NT 5.1; Trident/4.0) Timestamp: Mon, 17 Mar 2014 21:02:06 UTC Message: Could not get the backgroundRepeat property. Invalid argument. Line: 3772 Char: 3 Code: 0 URI: http://yesteam.de/fgt/mootools-core-1.4.5.js [/quote] - Line 3772 says this: [code] this.style[property] = value; [/code] which is, strangely, followed by a small block encased in "//<ltIE9>" right now i'm using an uncompressed mootools-core-1.4.5 for debugging, but it's the same across all versions afaics. i've searched the web and there's a few similar cases around by no solutions... does anyone know what's happening there? or could give me a push in the (hopefully) right direction? thanks. TurkuTing <turkut...@gmail.com> ps: i hacked a version of fgallery ( http://www.thregr.org/~wavexx/software/fgallery ) for myself, but the error is the same on the default version (try yesteam.de/fgt2) and even on fgallery's demo: http://www.thregr.org/~wavexx/software/fgallery/demo/ -- --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MooTools Users" group.
