Hello there, In IE8, history navigation (back/forward) causes code to be executed on the onload handler. How can I get Javascript in Firefox to also execute after a back or a forward? Thanks ...
I cannot seem to find anything about an async request locking up IE8 but it is happening to me. The browser will not allow navigation away from the current page until the request completes. Example: if I open page the script below does a request to place icons on a page based on additional data not available while building the page. Wh...
I have a <button> with a nested image and I'm using jQuery to toggle the image src attribute on mousedown and mouseup. When the button is clicked in IE8 the image moves down and right 1 pixel, as buttons do in IE, but then it sticks there and won't return to its original position. If I remove the mouseup event the button functions normal...

To see this accordion animation bug, go to http://hopplayground.com/ with Internet Explorer 8 (IE8) Click on "Bios". The first click on a menu item should open the submenu. But it doesn't, nothing appears. The second click kind of closes the menu, but leaves artifacting. Using other menus works correctly. Question: What is causing t...
Given something like var obj = { foo: function(){ try{ doSomething(); }catch(ex){ //@TODO - report error } } } MSIE 8 would throw up a "Missing semi-colon on line #" which was where the @TODO was. After I sed'd the dozens of @TODO's to be !TODO, MSIE was able to prop...

I've stripped it down to the bare minimum, just in case there's a problem with my company's CMS - but it still doesn't show up in IE 8. Page is here: http://www.idigbig.com/pages/fbcommenttest23.html Error in IE: Web...
I have seen that the situation is very problematic after reading these: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/380037/ie6-ie7-css-border-on-select-element http://api.jquery.com/css/ However maybe the situation has changed with Internet Explorer 8. If that is so, I'd expect this piece of code to work in IE8: $(selectObject).css("border", ...
In FF this hides all divs and then shows the id that was selected from the '#rule_rule_type' menu, which is the expected behavior. In IE 8 it does not hide all div id's: <script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8"> (function($){ $('#rule_rule_type').change(function() { $('#allowed_senders, #blocked_senders, #blocked_char...

In IE 8, we can bring out the Developer Tools. Then on top, there is a Browser Mode: IE 7 IE 8 IE 8 Compatibility View So if IE 7 is to force the page to be shown as if the browser is IE 7, and IE 8 is to force the page to be shown using the standard IE 8 as it is, then what is the extra IE 8 "Compatibility View" for? What use is it...

Is there a way I can make window.clipboardData.setData (javascript code that works in IE only) store text that is formatted? I can figure out new line breaks, but I'm after bold/underline/italic text. I'm sure there are differnt types of encodings to do this, I'm just not sure where to start looking. As the text is intended to be post...
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?

I was doing some tests on IE 8 on a standards-compliant page, with a strict doctype: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd"> However, apparently the page was being rendered in "IE 8 compat view"/"IE7 standards", which was breaking the layout. After looking around, I discovered that...
Hi Everyone, One of our products uses a Javascript Rich text editor, which has the ability to accept pasted HTML/Word and clean it up so the html is XHtml valid and presentable. This has been working fine for a few years, but recently we've been having complaints about pasting; from users with IE8. It turns out that regardless of sett...

Thanks in advance, John table.commentecho { margin-top: 250px; ma...
My Google-fu is weak and so I turn to the hive mind... I have a Selenium script I originally developed in the IDE, which I am now trying to adapt to run on IE8 via Selenium-RC. I'm trying to debug an error where an element is not being found. The problem is that as soon as the error occurs, the script exits and RC closes the browser. ...
