We are using a 3rd party library that sometimes does not work correctly on Win7. WE know how to configure this at installation time, but we'd also like to consider setting it at run time. Is this possible, or does that context have to be set prior to launch? (I think there is a slim to none chance, but figured I would ask anyway)
(C+...
EDIT: The code and examples have been changed, see the progress below.
I'm working on a menu that uses Jquery to animate the display of the dropdown/flyout lists.
The idea is, to have a menu that works well without javascript but when it is enabled we can had a bit of flair with Jquery, adding a alternative stylesheet and some animatio...
I have an image with this markup
<img src="wedding_00.jpg" width="900" height="600" />
And I am using CSS to downsize it to 600px width, like so:
img {
max-width:600px;
height:auto;
}
Can anyone explain why this method works in Compatibility mode, but not in standard mode? Is there a way I can modify my CSS so that it will ...
I'm looking at an error from one of our web applications, and it was calling a stored procedure that was responsible for updating a record in the database.
This stored procedure has worked for weeks with no issues. Then one day it started throwing errors, while debugging we found the cause to be inside the stored procedure.

I am having a IE8 compatibility issue while using the WebBrowser control to navigate to a website. The strange thing is sometimes the website works, but more than likely it wont. I can refresh the page sometimes and it works as well.
Just going to the page in IE8 I experienced the same CSS rendering problems so I switched to compatibil...
Hi,
I need to fix a ASP.NET website that works in IE6, to work in IE8 browser. I added the EmulateIE7 http header to IIS6 as short term fix, but still the pages are not displayed correctly. the web app was initially designed and developed for IE6, now we are upgrading to IE8, so is there any quick fix available for IE6 website to displa...
Hi,
I have a low-level (like really low-level, it's basically all IOCTL calls and several calls to enumeration APIs) that crashes sporadically on Windows Vista/7 on clients' machines. Unfortunately, I have not been able to procure any crash dumps but one helpful user did mention that running the program in XP Compatibility Mode solved t...
When doing a modal pop up using jquery.fancybox-1.2.6.js it works on every platform I have tried except IE8 when set to compatibility mode.
When the modal tries to display I get a javascript "not implemented" error on the page that keeps the modal from ever popping up. It gives the line number (line 207) the error occurs on in jquery.f...
By default IE8 forces intranet websites into compatibility mode. I tried changing the meta header to IE8, but it doesn't acknowledge the meta header and just uses the browser setting. Does anyone know how to disable this?
...
The below code does what I want in browsers I check with except IE when using compatibility mode. In compatibility mode the submit (Remove) button wraps to the next line. Can anyone help? It should look like it does in Firefox or IE when not using compatibility mode. Can't use float:left/right because I cannot specify length beforeha...
I have a internal website hosted on IIS. I added the following meta code and also add http-header that the page should in IE8 Browser mode and document mode.
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=8" >
We tested it on Visual Studio and and it works very well.
However, after we publish the code to another IIS server, one devel...
So i have a native executable (both for OS X and Windows) tucked inside a .jar, which is then programatically extracted to a temp location and executed from there. Unfortunately this executable will not run properly on my Windows machine (Win 7 64bit), when i manually set the compatibility mode to a Windows XP preset however, it will wor...
Hi all - I am working on a jQuery script on http://www.qxl.dk/ and I can't seem to get IE7 (or more accurately, IE8 in IE7 compatibility mode) to load my content.
The sidebar box on the right named "QXL Aktuelt" loads its HTML content from an external file using Ajax load(), then triggers a custom jQuery event ("aktuelt_loaded") that st...
It seems that when the webpage has
<meta content='IE=EmulateIE7' http-equiv='X-UA-Compatible' />
so that IE 8 will emulate IE 7, then later in the webpage, when there is
<!--[if lt IE 8]>
<link href="http://www.example.com/stylesheets/compiled/ie.css" type="text/css" />
<![endif]-->
then it will also be loading ie.css?
That is...
If I serve a page using
<meta content='IE=EmulateIE7' http-equiv='X-UA-Compatible'>
using HTML 4.01 strict, and load this page into IE 8, then the IE 8's Developer Tools shows that it is using:
Browser Mode: IE 8 Document Mode: IE 7 Standards
Well then, is IE 8 using partly IE 8 engine and partly IE 7 engine? Which part is IE ...
I'm working on this page here:
http://noasimon.co.il/
It looks fine in firefox, chrome, opera and IE8
But when I turn on the "compatibility view" in IE8, the menu images go below the text.
Another problem which happens only in this view is in this page:
http://noasimon.co.il/exhibition2010
The thumbnails go too far left outside the v...
I have been pulling my hair out over the past few days with a div in that does not stretch across the entire width of the screen like it should. Works fine in Firefox, but in IE (IE8 to be specific) it will not render correctly unless it is in Compatibility Mode. If the page renders correctly in Compatibility Mode there has to be some ...
Hi,
I have just installed IE9 beta and on a specific site I created (HTML5) IE9 jumps to compatibility mode unless I manually tell it not to. I have tried removing several parts of the website but no change. Including removing all CSS includes. On some other website of me it goes just fine.
Also, don't set it manually because then IE9 ...
Experimenting with new features of T-SQL, I've run into a puzzle. Here is some new syntax supported by SQL 2008 and I'd expect it to work on databases set for compatibility mode 100 (i.e. 2008) and not work for compat mode 80 (i.e. 2000). Yet this works for a database set for SQL SERVER 2000 compatibility mode on a SQL 2008 instance of S...
When debugging AutoCAD add-ons you set Visual Studio 2010 to start the AutoCAD exe first. If the AutoCAD .exe properties are set to run in compatibility mode for Windows XP (NOT the Virtual PC XP mode) will it mess things up? ie. is Visual Studio 2010 ok with this?
The reason I'm leaning towards running older versions in compatibility m...
