why is IE8 adding a visibility:hidden style to my select tag?

I've got a strange issue with a simple select dropdown not displaying in IE8. It works fine in FF, Chrome, and IE8 in compatibility mode. It's within a scriptaculous accordion, but the accordion appears to function just fine. There is no error being thrown, either. The dropdown simply doesn't display at all. I thought it might be caused ...

How do I force an ASP web application to refresh itself?

I've made some changes to a query that an ASP page uses, and now I need to see if those changes did what I expect. But, the dumb app won't refresh itself, and I don't know how to force it.

Asian characters in IE 8 get garbled in Server; is this due to HTTP header Content-Type?

One of the request parameters in an http request made by the client contains Japanese characters. If I make this request in Firefox and look at the parameter as soon as it reaches the server by debugging in Eclipse, the characters look fine.

The Content-Type of the server response header is the fol...

How can I make Chinese characters show in IE8 without forcing compatibility mode?

All the solutions for this issue say to use <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=EmulateIE7" />, which works because it forces the browser to render in compatibility view (i.e. as if it were IE7), but then the characters don't display when the user is actually using IE7 (or a number of other browsers). Instead, I see squares. ...

why do these calendar javascripts hide select, applet, and iframe tags for IE?

I'm trying to diagnose a problem with an older site than I'm supporting. The problem is that in IE8, a SELECT tag is being hidden. Turns out it is due to an older version of a calendar.js which is applying visibility:hidden style to not only SELECT Tags, but also applets and iframes. I'm rusty on my javascript and details of older brow...
