Dropdown hidden in IE8

  • Dropdown hidden in IE8

    Posted 11 years 6 months ago
    • On the Gantry demo :http://demo.gantry-framework.org/ using IE 10 in IE 8 browser mode, the dropdown menus are not being displayed.

      I'm also seeing this on my installed Gantry.

      I'm not sure if it is seen in real IE8, but the IE 10 browser modes seem pretty accurate in general.

    • I do not have ie10 installed but using ie9 and the ie8 user agent with the ie dev tools I do not see this issue., Please check to nake sure you are not also in quirks or compatibility mode.

    • It's using IE8 standards.

      I wonder if anyone has IE8 installed who can check what it is actually displaying?

      You have to be careful with compatibility mode starting with IE10 as it does not provide a complete emulation of IE6/7/8. Microsoft has removed some features "for improved interoperability and compliance with HTML5".
      So in IE9 running through all the browser modes each one IE9 -> IE7 properly showed the drop-down menus.

      In Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit running IE10 all modes showed the drop-downs, except as you have noted IE8.

      The real shocker :shock:
      well you figure it out, leave it to MS :roll:
