Hello,

Thank you for the question regarding Intersoft product.

Basically, the current Intersoft live demo is using HTML5 doctype and by default, Internet Explorer 8 doesn’t support HTML5 doctype.

If you want to use Intersoft control in Internet Explorer 8, please try to use HTML4 then set the ‘RenderingMode’ property to ‘Quirks’.

I apologize for any inconvenience this problem may have caused you.

but we need a solution for ie 11 to ie 8 users without the compatibility mode. 

I am facing similar issues. I am currently testing the solution given above, but one issue still exists. 

When setting the doctype to HTML4 and the WebGrid RenderingMode to Quirks, the height of the grid does not remain static. Intead, as the number of rows in the grid change, the height of the grid changes with it. If there are 0 rows, the status bar moves right under the header/filter row. If there are 100 rows, then the height of the grid extends past what was set for the grid height in markup. Can you please let me know how I can workaround this issue?

FYI: When trying to add a reply in this thread, I received an error message and was asked to contact Intersoft support. I tried again and was told the same thing. I then created a new thread for my question. I have since noticed that my original two posts to this thread were added, even though it said it failed both times. This was originally the 2nd post.

Hello,

I have replied your thread (http://intersoftpt.com/Community/WebGrid/WebGrid-height-not-static-in-IE8/).
I am looking forward for the reply.
