[css-d] IE 8 issue upon refresh
Hello list, Shocking as this may seem, I'm having an issue with IE8. When I first hit this page it seems to work fine. But after a refresh or two, it goes blank and doesn't recover.

[css-d] IE 8 issue
I am a web developer taking over the maintenance of my company's site from a former developer. We recently upgraded to IE 8 and noticed an issue we hadn't had before. If you look at the following page in both IE 6/7 and Firefox, it should look okay: www.pottersignal.com/search_results.aspx However, in IE 8 the middle section expands to fill the whole page. Anybody see what in the CSS could be causing this? I've tried a few adjustments that don't seem to be working. By the way, I know the current architecture of the site leaves a *lot *to be desired. However, I've been tasked to come in and update/clean up where I can, but am not able to do a complete overall at the moment. So any suggestions that work with what we've got right now would be very appreciated!

So any suggestions that work with what we've got right now would be very appreciated! The markup of that page has several errors (try running a validator, like the the w3c one: http://validator.w3.org/check?verbose=1uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.pottersignal.com%2Fsearch_results.aspx) Most are probably harmless (many will probably disappear simply changing the doctype into HTML instead of XHTML). But the ones related to mismatches in the opening/closing of tags are serious and may cause differences amongst browsers; you should try correcting them. Indeed the difference in the IE8 rendering seems caused by the form element which is opened at line 37 and wrongly closed at line 126. If you close it where more appropriate (~ line 91), IE8 may render the page more in line with the others.

Re: [css-d] IE 8
2009/5/4 Climis, Tim tcli...@indiana.edu: Microsoft has actually done something to make out jobs easier there. (unbelievable, I know) IE8 has a Compatability View button in the address bar, which when pressed, makes pages render as in IE7. So you don't need separate machines, nor do you need to keep IE7. Don't use this for testing IE7 compatibility. It is designed to let users attempt to view webpages which would otherwise break in IE8. It is not designed as a testing tool. As such it: (a) Is not a perfectly compatible with IE7 - there are differences. and (b) It flags the URL as potentially incompatible with IE8 with Microsoft. If enough users use IE7 mode, then the URL could be added to a list of URLs for which compatibility mode is the default for IE8 users. -- David Dorward http://dorward.me.ukhttp://blog.dorward.me.uk __ css-discuss [cs...@lists.css-discuss.org] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ List policies -- http://css-discuss.org/policies.html Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/

Re: [css-d] IE 8
Kathy: Sorry I haven't been able to respond. It seems that you are hearing the same thing from other people. Right now I can't unfortunately reach the SVN where I saw the problem. What I did see is the hacked stand-alone IE even with the proper .dll files for PNG transparency started pushing background position items off parts of the page (instead of just not working) when a real windows IE 6 imaged with the same OS was working. Other stuff was breaking too, elements and such to a point that we stopped using it because things would render different for each of the customers. Bug me in a few days to remind me and I'll get you lots of proof ;-) Cheers! -ck On May 4, 2009, at 5:11 PM, Kathy Wheeler wrote: On 05/05/2009, at 5:25 AM, Court Kizer wrote: I recommend staying away from multiple IE I can think of 20 instances where it will render different from a machine with the real thing.

plus: it doesn't contain IE 7 Yes - it doesn't, but the same team that developed it (Tredosoft) have come up with an IE 7 Standalone version: http://tredosoft.com/IE7_standalone It is packed separately, because at the time of release IE7 was the latest IE version, and you could either have an original IE 7 and want to use previous versions (multiple IE), or don't want to upgrade yet, but install just a IE 7 standalone for testing purposes.

Here's one: Standalone IE6 does not support .png images. Multi-IE6 on XP with IE7 installed, does. I shouldn't need to provide urls for that, so I won't. It isn't necessarily a rendering difference per the description above, but it's a proof that Multi-IE6 isn't the same as IE6. It stands to reason that there will be other differences, with no reason to doubt that rendering per the above will also be affected.

Re: [css-d] IE 8
I recommend staying away from multiple IE I can think of 20 instances where it will render different from a machine with the real thing. Virtualiin is free.

Virtualiin is free. I have asked for documented proofs of this before and so far have received none! Not even sample URL's. I would appreciate more details on those 20 instances. So far MultipleIE for ie 5, 5.5 and 6, with ie8 handling 7 (in compatability mode) and 8 appears to be working as well as (or as badly as) ie *ever* works. And MultipleIE is free too.

Re: [css-d] IE 8
I would listen to the suggestion as is. The reasoning behind what Court said (whether or not there are 20 instances, could be more could be less) is because since it is software, you are introducing additional code than the base code for iE. There could be bugs in MultipleIE and it will result in IE appearing different than an actual real version. You can use vmware which, to my knowledge, has an edition that will allow you to install virtual machines onto your computer for free, please do not quote me on that though. This would be the best option because this way you are seeing it as every person using that version of IE on that specific version OS would see it. The only true way of cross browser testing would be ridiculously complex and would require having a virtual machine of every OS you want it to work on with every browser you want it to work on. If I were you, I would use browsershots to see what it looks like, it will display a lot more variations than you could on your machine. __ css-discuss [cs...@lists.css-discuss.org] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ List policies -- http://css-discuss.org/policies.html Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
