It's not resolved. IT does not work in IE9, you confirmed this yourself.

changing ResultBoxWindowType to Normal does get it to render teh drop down list but in IE9 you cannot select any option at all in this mode.

 

This is easily verified by running the sample page in IE9, it will NOT work.

ResultBoxWindowType="Normal"  works in IE 8.07601.17514 

Default option of Popup does not.

I don't know how to get different buld releases of IE8.

You have confirmed that it does not work in IE9 on your system.

Could you please escalate the bug to the developers since you have confirmed webcombo with multiple coloumns does not work in IE9.

This is microsofts current release of IE and this should be a high priority fix i beleive.

thanks,

Karl

windows 7, 64bit

Internet explorer secuirty settings "default"  "Medium"  also "low" does not work either.

 

I would say ActiveX is the culprit, i'd say the code should be changed to only use activex if browser is an old internet explorer version , say 5 or maybe 6 where there is no option but not in ie 7,8,9 where it is not necessary .

 

webcombo works fine in Chrome or firefox without activex. I think maybe webcombo is trying to use activex for all versions of IE, i think this is is a mistake as often people change their security settings and disable activex. this has been a  problem for me with clients in the past. This time activex is not disabled but still it does not work.

I have on my pc IE 8.0.7600.16385

it dees not work with this version

I installed latest version of ietester (v0.4.11)

however it does work with all the  IE engines built into ie tester except IE9, that is ,  IE5-10

 

Interestingly, in IEtester when it does not work in IE9 it shows a "6" in the combo box, from previous experience this is usually due to browser security and activex being disbaled but this is not the case here.

thanks for your prompt response handy.

 

it's quite easy to change the sample to XHTML doctype with

MasterPageFile="DefaultMasterXHTML.master"

 

even with the latest build it still does not work.

this still does not work? 

is it possible to get a newer version than

build 220, there have been no updated for webcombo released?

has to be done in javascript

keep in mind: 

http://www.softcomplex.com/docs/get_window_size_and_scrollbar_position.html


function syncHeight() {

 var WebGrid1 = ISGetObject("WebGrid1"); var buffer = 2; while(document.documentElement.scrollHeight > document.documentElement.clientHeight) {

WebGrid1.SetHeight(WebGrid1.HtmlObj.parentElement.clientHeight - (document.documentElement.scrollHeight - document.documentElement.clientHeight) - buffer);

buffer++;

}

return true;

}

I re-iterate that Microsoft Outlook Web mail and Google mail both use quirks mode to get around this issue, it's not particular to Webgrid.

Web browsers do not allow you to  fill vertical page in a cross browser friendly way.

You will need javascript that checks the container element size and scroll size as i posted previously, that script syncHeight function fixed the height issue in the broken sample. simply replace the function commented out in the broken sample provided. 

intersoft caould include similar script in webgrid to do it correctly, most likely in their wgDoResize() function, but in either case be aware that browsers are not very consistent at returning content size info:  http://www.softcomplex.com/docs/get_window_size_and_scrollbar_position.html
