Re: [Dspace-tech] DSpace 4.1, JSPUI and IE 9 menu display issue

2014-05-06 Thread Michael White
Hi Jacob,

Thanks for the pointers.

> the issue on the JSPUI demo (of course, doing so will also remove the 
> gradient).

Could you possibly provide some more details on how you achieved this as I've 
just been trying but have been unable to get it to work :-(

I tried commenting out the "filter" property of the navbar in both 
"bootstrap-theme.css" and in "bootstrap-theme.min.css", so I had:

.navbar {
  background-image:-webkit-gradient(linear,left 0,left 
100%,from(#fff),to(#f8f8f8));
  background-image:-webkit-linear-gradient(top,#fff,0%,#f8f8f8,100%);
  background-image:-moz-linear-gradient(top,#fff 0,#f8f8f8 100%);
  background-image:linear-gradient(to bottom,#fff 0,#f8f8f8 100%);
  background-repeat:repeat-x;
  border-radius:4px;
  
/*filter:progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.gradient(startColorstr='#',endColorstr='#fff8f8f8',GradientType=0);*/
  -webkit-box-shadow:inset 0 1px 0 rgba(255,255,255,0.15),0 1px 5px 
rgba(0,0,0,0.075);
  box-shadow:inset 0 1px 0 rgba(255,255,255,0.15),0 1px 5px rgba(0,0,0,0.075)
}

- but this didn't seem to make any difference. Looking at the source, it 
appears that it is (on the homepage at least!) "bootstrap-theme.min.css" that 
is being used and I did manage to make some progress by adding 
"position:static;" to the navbar definition in that file (against the 
recommendations on the pages you pointed to!) - so I had:

.navbar {
  position: static;
  background-image:-webkit-gradient(linear,left 0,left 
100%,from(#fff),to(#f8f8f8));
  background-image:-webkit-linear-gradient(top,#fff,0%,#f8f8f8,100%);
  background-image:-moz-linear-gradient(top,#fff 0,#f8f8f8 100%);
  background-image:linear-gradient(to bottom,#fff 0,#f8f8f8 100%);
  background-repeat:repeat-x;
  border-radius:4px;
  
/*filter:progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.gradient(startColorstr='#',endColorstr='#fff8f8f8',GradientType=0);*/
  -webkit-box-shadow:inset 0 1px 0 rgba(255,255,255,0.15),0 1px 5px 
rgba(0,0,0,0.075);
  box-shadow:inset 0 1px 0 rgba(255,255,255,0.15),0 1px 5px rgba(0,0,0,0.075)
}

- after doing this, the pop-up menus worked fine in IE v9 (hooray!) but the top 
of the page had been pushed down with a load of white space above which is no 
good (boo!) - also tried "position:relative" and "position:fixed" but the menus 
just went back to being broken again with these values (boo hoo!)  . . . .

I'm definitely no css aficionado (I probably know just about enough to be very 
dangerous) so would welcome any other pointers or suggestions of stuff to hack 
that may help to fix this :-)

Cheers,

Mike

Re: [Dspace-tech] DSpace 4.1, JSPUI and IE 9 menu display issue

2014-05-05 Thread Tim Donohue
I've logged an bug report:

https://jira.duraspace.org/browse/DS-1995

In this case, I suspect that no one had tested the new JSPUI against 
these older versions of IE, and no one had yet reported these issues. 
However, I can also replicate these issues using the IE 8 & IE 9 
emulators in the latest version of IE (version 11).

If anyone with a patch/fix wants to add details to the above ticket, 
then we can work to get this resolved soon (hopefully even in 4.2).

Thanks!

-Tim

Re: [Dspace-tech] DSpace 4.1, JSPUI and IE 9 menu display issue

2014-05-05 Thread Brown, Jacob
This seems more like a Bootstrap 3 issue (although the theme developers could 
have corrected it); see these related SO questions:

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/14664948/twitter-bootstrap-button-dropdown-not-working-in-ie9
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/13256144/z-index-issue-in-twitter-bootstrap-header
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/13916326/z-index-issue-with-twitter-bootstrap-dropdown-menu

I can confirm that removing the CSS "filter" property for the navbar fixes the 
issue on the JSPUI demo (of course, doing so will also remove the gradient).

I'm guessing from the lack of responses that others haven't come across this 
(yet)?

I've just tested my IE v9 against http://demo.dspace.org/jspui/ and I note the 
same problem (options don't appear on the pop-up menus, and pop-up menus appear 
behind other elements on the page, a la 
http://www.is.stir.ac.uk/misc/storre/dspace4-menu-ie9.png).

Does anyone else out there have access to IE v9? Do you see the same issue with 
http://demo.dspace.org/jspui/ (or is it just me)?

I also checked the "DSpace v4.x with JSPUI" sites listed in 
http://registry.duraspace.org/registry/dspace and saw the same issue when 
accessing each of these (so this definitely doesn't look like an issue specific 
to my implementation of DSpace v4!).

Does anyone else have v4.1 with JSPUI up and running? Are you able to confirm 
if it works OK for you in IE v9 or not?

I'm trying to get a handle on whether or not this is an issue with the specific 
version of IE 9 we have deployed here (v9.0.8112.16421), or if it is a more 
general compatibility issue between IE (v9) and the JSPUI in DSpace v4.1 . . . 

A brief search for information on DSpace Browser Compatibility seems to suggest 
this is still under discussion to some extent for v4 - 
https://jira.duraspace.org/i#browse/DS-1831 - so perhaps IE v9 just isn't 
compatible?

More importantly, I need to find a way around this before we can upgrade to 
DSpace v4 as this version of IE 9 is currently widely deployed on staff 
machines here! :-(

Any thoughts, observations or suggestions welcome.

Cheers,

Mike

[Dspace-tech] DSpace 4.1, JSPUI and IE 9 menu display issue

2014-04-29 Thread Michael White
Hi,

Setting up a DSpace 4.1 DEV system, with the new JSPUI, I've noticed an issue 
with the display of the "pop-up menus" in the navigation bar when using IE v9 - 
it works fine on the other browsers I have at my disposal.

When hovering over a menu item with a pop-up menu (e.g. "Sign on to:"), the 
pop-up area appears but most of the menu items are missing and what does appear 
is not hyperlinked - also the menu appears behind other components on the 
screen - here is a screen shot showing what I mean:

http://www.is.stir.ac.uk/misc/storre/dspace4-menu-ie9.png

I've tried playing with Browser/Document modes, but that just made things worse!

Has anyone else seen anything like this? Anyone have any ideas how to address 
this issue?

Unfortunately IE 9 is still widely deployed here so I really need to resolve 
this if at all possible!

Any assistance or pointers welcome.

Cheers,

Mike
