I think I've used FF so long now and NOT IE that I've become dumb to IE 7 and 8. So this is a very late question and I'm sure everyone knows by now but "allow websites to prompt for information using scripted windows"...did this replace the allow javascript in the Advanced tab? Holy sh**, I can't believe it, but I haven't used IE in li...

I'm using CSS to indicate the trigger text for a jQuery slide-down section: i.e. when you hover over the trigger text the cursor changes to a pointer and the opacity of the trigger text is reduced to indicate that the text has a click action. This works fine in Firefox and Chrome, but in IE8 the opacity doesn't change. I've tried a var...
I have found a fairly significant issue with IE8 with regard to setting cookie expirations to 0 (so as to log a user out when they close the browser). It seems that each new tab or window is counted as a new session, so if a user opens a page on the site in a new tab/window, they have to login again unless they selected the option to st...
Hi, I am building a site using Joomla and a paticular plugin Joom Gallery. Joom Gallery has a plugin which displays scrolling images. All works great except one minor fault which I believe is something to do with IE8. In FF the images centred, but in IE8 they are aligned to the left. I belive the offending code is as follows: (Thi...
So I've got this markup: <div id="text-container"> <p></p> </div> with this style (redundant, I know): #text-container {display:block: width:220px; height:280px;} #text-container p {display:block; width:220px; height:60px;} and this bit of jQuery plugging simple content into the paragraph: $("#text-container p").text(data); Wo...
I am trying to build a page in .NET MVC (not that this matters) where a div is divided into left and right containers using a float. When I try to clear the float using anything other than a <b> tag (such as <div> or <br>), IE8 will not render the page correctly (it's as if it ignores the style in the tag). If I use the <b> tag, Chrome a...
I'm currently finishing up testing a new Ruby on Rails app. Just recently, some of the pages do not seem to finish downloading in IE8. In FireFox, Chrome and Safari, everything works perfectly. The pages all validate successfully using the W3C validator. When I view the page source in IE8, the page has been chopped off around 75% of the...
As part of my job post announcements to a proprietary, password-protected site. There is no HTML control in the announcement panel nor is there a button that allows you to insert an image. I've worked around these limitations by making my own basic HTML pages with tables with images using the "img" tag. I open the HTML page in Firefox, t...
When IE8 is in IE7-compatibility mode it behabes like IE7 in quirks mode, which means there is no support for the new CSS features that IE7 supports (e.g. object selectors --child selectors, adjacent selectors, etc..). How can I make IE8 to emulate IE7's standard mode rather than quirks mode?? Note: The purpose of this is not to find...
I have a password field in an HTML page that does not display bullets or asterisks when typing the password, but a small box with what appears to be a question mark symbol. I've tried this in Firefox, and there the normal bullets are shown, just like when entering passwords in other web forms. Is there a way HTML, CSS, or Javascript ca...
Hello, I have checked this in IE8 and its compatible mode, in firefox this code is working fine but in IE its not indenting as expected. The code is below: Please help! <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd"> <html> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; c...
I removed Chrome Frame from my system but IE8 User Agent still has chromeframe in it. How can I remove Chrome Frame entirely? Can I somehow reset all IE8 settings or is my only choice somekind of User-Agent changer? ...
Hi, I need to upgrade a ASP.NET website for IE8. it works fine in IE6, but not in IE8. I don't want to run it in any backward compatibility mode. I would like to make any code changes that are required to make it fully compliant with IE8/Firefox. what is the best and/or easiest way to do that? is it just a case of going through each of...
I tried the following new GTileLayer(null, _minZoom, _maxZoom, { isPng: true, opacity: 0.6 }); But in IE8, while the alpha opacity works, the pixels in the PNG that already had translucence they show a grey color and standard opacity. I have noticed also that PNG files that contain alpha transparency and their transparency is not mod...
I just built a new machine and installed the windows 7 ultimate 64 bit on it. Internet explorer 8 is giving me major pains. whenever I try to open a link in a new tab, it hangs. Although the new tab works fine if I just click on the new tab. It is just the "Ctrl+Click" or "Right Click" and "Open with new tab" that hangs the IE for around...
I normally do my web dev using Firefox - I periodically test for cross browser compatability of my pages by using FF and IE. I have just found that one of my AJAX pages stopped working in IE - although it works fine in FF. With FF, I always use FireBug to debug my Ajax interactions. I am looking for a similar tool to use with IE - to se...
Hi, I have a problem with all multpile tab browsers due to session object. I have a requirement that whenever user opens a new browser I need to show different values, so I thought of using Session as in IE 6 every browser creates a new session. But all other multiple tab broswers IE 7 and IE 8 and FF shares the session(If user has alre...
The problem is a footer on a web page that seem to not follow the correct flow like it does in FireFox. The problem feels like it is an Internet Explorer related bug, because the layout will "magically" snap into place when i move the mouse over the link "Legg til i handlelisten". On pages where the "description" part of the page is long...

When I use IE7 working fine, but when i upgraded IE7 to IE8 it is not working properly. This context menu is not coming left side of the page. I am thinking as of context menu property that should come left side...
