IE9 : Examples explorer doesn't work

[jeybonnet]

With IE9 just downloaded, I try to go to examples explorer, but it's impossible to click on menu item.

Moreover, it seems viewport does not work.

Hi,

IE9 is not released yet, we support officially released browsers only

[jeybonnet]

I understand but nevertheless, examples on sencha.com works.

Are you testing locally, or viewing https://examples1.ext.net?

I'm refreshing the online build of https://examples1.ext.net. Will be live in a few minutes.

It's been a while since the online app was updated, and now we're using ExtJS 3.3, so that might help solve the problem.

The examples on https://examples1.ext.net do work on IE9, but you have to first enable compatibility mode in IE (By click on the compatibility icon before refresh icon).

The question is why compatibility mode needs to be enabled. Anyways it?s still just a beta.

Well it will work in compatibility mode because effectively the browser will be using the "IE7 standards" Document mode. But yes it's still a Beta release.

Now that IE9 is released, this is an issue. All that is required is to put the X-UA meta tag before ANYTHING else loads in the head. Should be easy right?

Ext.Net does force itself into the head at position 0, so the only real way I have found to do this so far is to add the below to your Global.asax. This works a charm! Your application will look and behave like it did in IE8/7.

protected void Application_BeginRequest(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    Response.AppendHeader("X-UA-Compatible", "IE=8");
}

Enjoy!

Hi,

You can use ResourcePlaceholder (with Mode property) to control Ext.Net resources position
