I'm a Mac user and programmer. I mostly do back-end stuff, but recently, I've need to do some front-end tasks and need to test sites on PCs as well. So I'm looking for a PC just to test the look of sites in IE. Nothing fancy Any suggestions? ...
I want to set up a VPN server in windows xp but is there a way to do that from commandline? ...
Hi all, I'm using the following script in my website in order to create pagination "next-previous" functionality. It's a actually a Dreamweaver's code. The script uses the url to get some values and then it re-creates it. The result url in IE7 and IE8 contains non-readable characters and at the end the page does not work properly. ...
This question, despite accepted-answer, was not answered. The reason it has an answer marked as accepted is because the bounty system, which I used, demands one. You are still welcome to answer this question if you know the answer (please do) - I will try to reputation-pay you in upvotes elsewhere. (Reputation purists may now throw rocks...
IE yet again is proving to be the bane of my existence. The top of a site I'm working on has a horizontal menu, an item of which triggers a pure-CSS menu that is positioned absolute within the parent menu DIV (positioned relative). This places the menu perfectly in both IE and the W3C compliant browsers. The problem arises when I have m...
$.post($(this).attr("action"), $(this).serialize(), function(json) { alert('red'); AddItemAjax(json); }, "json"); This works in Chrome but not IE or FF.. it fails to just run this line of code. Ive made sure it gets to this point but fails when trying the post! (note i have the alert('red'); to let me kn...
a client's page that was built for ie7 was tagged using the compatibility mode meta tag, so that it rendered correctly on ie8 as well. this worked for a while. recently, testing the page reveals some severe issues, that are resolved only once the 'compatibility mode' button at the top of the browser is pressed. the tag is correct and is ...
Hi at http://lunatestsite.co.uk my jQuery roundabout near the bottom of the homepage is problematic in IE7 and 8 - book cover images blurred/pixellated. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1985303/ie-image-display-problems/2355921#2355921 suggests something to do with em sizing in IE being the root of it but I don't really understand ...
I found many answers to this question on Google, but none of them seem to work for all browsers. I am looking for a CSS-only way to get min-width working on Firefox, IE6, IE7, and IE8. It is well-known that IE does not support min-width, so several hacks are out there to try to emulate the behavior of min-width. Unfortunately, I have no...
I would like to run a browser (Internet Explorer) from a command prompt using a specific web address. As a result of that I would like to see a simple IE window without toolbars and address line. I wonder if JavaScript is able to control "parameters" of windows in which it is loaded. I mean, I want to add some JavaScript into my HTML cod...
There are some similiar questions posted here, but they are too specific. When a form has multiple image inputs and the server side uses their names and/or values to distinguish which one was clicked it works perfectly in FF and people often write the whole thing before finding out taht HTML specifies nothing has to be sent and some bro...
I fall into an IE bug that I don't find a way to solve Here's the template http://codecanyon.net/item/tquery-dynamic-tables/full_screen_preview/89478 If you open with Firefox or Chrome, the table header shows correctly, no BLACK, if you use IE7 or IE8, it shows some black space. Why? I tried to change padding, margin... but that didn't ...
Hi, I am using Jquery BBQ and loading the main content part of my page with this (ajax) Im having problems in IE with the DIV that encapsulates the main content (works fine in FF) Whats happening is that the content between the DIV is losing all of the styles associated with it. When I use a made up tag e.g. <mytag id="content"> the s...
I have a Webforms, AJAX-enabled web page which, when rendering large amounts of data, is extremely slow to load in IE (we're married to IE - no other browser options). In an attempt to determine the source of the slowness, I viewed the HTML source (about 2.5 MB) and copied all of it (except for the Ajax JavaScript calls) to a blank .htm...
This is the page I'm working on... http://schnell.dreamhosters.com/folio/earthquake.html Its purpose is explained via the instructions on the left. I'm finding that after doing so many searches and clicking so many of the links in the list on the right that the page freezes up, the Google Map stops working and Firebug tells me of an err...
I'm supporting an existing website and IE6 suppport seems to come up given the amount of rich AJAX and other technology sprinkled into the solution. IE6 is definitely going the way of the dinosaur, however the people who operate the site insist that 20% of Internet users are still rolling with IE6. My question is this: how many of th...
IE does not work good with unknown elements (ie. HTML5 elements), one cannot style them , or access most of their props. Their are numerous work arounds for this for example: http://remysharp.com/2009/01/07/html5-enabling-script/ The problem is that this works great for static HTML that was available on page load, but when one creates H...

Sorry if this is duplicate,I would think it would be but couldn't find anything. I have a flex application that I am posting data back to a php/mysql server via IE. I haven't run into any problems yet, but knowing this ahead of time might save me a bunch of frustration and work. Is there a size limit to posting data via http? This art...
