Within our domain we have many different independent web sites. Some of these sites require that the user be in compatibility mode for IE browsers. Most sites, like those using webUI controls require the user NOT to be in compatability mode. So those sites use the <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=Edge,chrome=1" /> solution to force the browser to ignore the compatability settings and render the page in the browsers standard mode, works great except for the webGrid. Webgrid appears to ignore this and uses the compatability mode setting of the browser. So for IE10, the columns are misaligned and in IE11 no data is shown at all and get the
error: Line: 1 Error: Object doesn't support property or method 'attachEvent'.

I am using 2015 R1 controls. Using <!DOCTYPE html> and renderMode of HTML5.

Is there a solution, other than telling each user not to use compatbaility mode on this site but you need it on that site!

thanks

...

Webgrid appears to ignore this and uses the compatability mode setting of the browser. So for IE10, the columns are misaligned and in IE11 no data is shown at all ...

I tried to reproduce the reported problem by creating a simple page of WebGrid. The page uses html5 doctype declaration: <!DOCTYPE html>. RenderingMode of WebGrid is set to HTML5. The meta tag (in the quoted message) also added into the page.

However, I was unable to replicate the problem. WebGrid is rendered in IE 11 without any issues. I'm using 2015 R1 controls with following details: WebGrid 9.0.7200.4 and WebUI.NET Framework 3.0.5000.916.

Should you find anything that I might miss during my attempt to reproduce the problem, please feel free let me know. If necessary, I can send you my simple page.

Hi Yudi,
Thanks for your response. Did you add the site (localhost if running from your computer) into the Compatability View Settings? Compatability mode needs to be set on. Please send me your sample page and I'll see if it shows the same here.

thanks

Yudi,

I can reproduce my issue using the FirstExperience same from 2015 R1. I am using the VB version of the sample. Replace the DefaultMaster.master with the one in the attached file. Before running make sure that you add the site that you are running the sample from into the Compatability View Settings: See attached screen shot. This also shows what the gridlooks like when you run it.

thanks

Anything yet? Did you try putting your browser in compatibility mode?

Sorry for the delay in sending this.

Yes, my mistake. I forgot to add the test site into the list of Compatibility view WebSites.

I will have this discussed with the team and will get back to you as soon as possible.

When compatibility mode is enabled, the browser is detected as an old browser. WebGrid will use JS file that utilize attachEvent to binds the specified function to an event, so that the function gets called whenever the event fires on the object.

... So those sites use the <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=Edge,chrome=1" /> solution to force the browser to ignore the compatability settings and render the page in the browsers standard mode, works great except for the webGrid. Webgrid appears to ignore this and uses the compatability mode setting of the browser. So for IE10, the columns are misaligned and in IE11 no data is shown at all ...

Adding the above meta tag will force the old browser to act as modern browser. It will shows exception telling that object doesn't support property or method 'attachEvent' (due to the fact that addEventListener should be used instead of attachEvent).

WebGrid development team propose a solution for such scenario. They will introduce a property which will force use the JS for modern browser. This enhancement is filed under ASPNET-190.

I will keep this thread updated with any news I heard from the team regarding ASPNET-190.

Any updates on ASPNET-190, really could use a fix for this.

thanks

Any news of the above enhancements ASPNET-190?

John BoninMember

Posted: January 21, 2016 7:24 PM in response to Yudi

This is very important to us and in a need for a fix. If one will not be available soon we will have to find an alternative solution. the lastest version of WebGrid will not work when IE11 is in compatibility mode. By Group Policy our domain dot.gov is forced into compatability mode and the grid doesn't work in this mode.

Please let me know what is going on with ASPNET-190 and the ability for webGrid to display correctly when IE11 is in compatability mode.

Hi,

I would like to know if this issue is solved yet.

John BoninMember

Posted: March 2, 2016 11:40 AM in response to Henrik Ingenäs

As far as I can tell, it has not. I haven't downloaded the new version yet, but there is no mention of ASPNET-190 in the release notes. Still have not heard a peep out of support on this issue.

Hello John Bonin and Henrik Ingenäs.

The reported problem under ASPNET-190 has been resolved. The development team has researched a way to be able to detect the compatibility mode automatically, so users don't have to set anything. It just works.

I enclosed the nightly-build of ISNet.WebUI Framework 3.0 as attachment (WebUINET3_0_5000_968.zip).

In order to apply the nightly-build of ISNet.WebUI Framework 3.0 on development PC, you will need to apply the hotfix manually. Please refer to To apply WebUI.NET Framework hotfix section in Apply ASP.NET Product Hotfix Manually tutorial article. If you are using Windows 7 or newer as the operating system of your development PC, you will need to use gacutil to remove/uninstall (gacutil /u [assembly name]) and install (gacutil /i [path to assembly file] assembly into GAC.

Last, please don't forget to apply the nightly-build of of ISNet.WebUI Framework 3.0 on your project/web site.

Please let us know if you have different result.

Sorry for the delay, but this build has SOLVED our problem. Thank you. Been tested and all is well. Will this fix (or has it already been) applied to the new 2016 product? Don't want to download and install the new release only to find it doesn't include it.

It will be released as hotfix (available on Update Manager), as well as installer later. We're committed to update installers on monthly basis, in addition to Update Manager.

Intersoft, When is this going to be fixed? Please give me a date because I need to inform my management. This issue was first reported back in August 2015, and here it is, May 2016, and it's not fixed yet. I'm currently using WebGrid 8.0.7200.260, and WebUI version 3.0.5000.974. (The latest versions currently avaible for download). Please fix this. Jim

In fact, I reported this issue from June 2015. But it still couldn't be fixed until now. Please notify me when it fixed, too.

Could you please test following workaround for ASPNET-363 and let me know the result?

div.WG5-F div table
{
    width: 100%;
}

.WG5-Header
{
    box-sizing: border-box;
}

Add above style to the page which has WebGrid inside. For your information, this workaround works on my simple page running WebGrid 10 (10.0.7200.24) and WebUI.NET Framework 3.0 (3.0.5000.974).

For reference, can check the attached simple sample.

Just upgraded webGrid to version 10 and started to experience the same problems with the column headers being out of line. I applied the CSS fix listed above and it solved the problem.

Glad to hear that the CSS fix resolved the reported problem (as workaround for ASPNET-363).
