    Hi there have a major problem with one of my sites using Webloginpe

    And will not work in latest versions of IE

    I have searched through forums and found some threads, and have changed permissions on js file ieButtonFix.js and indeed have moved the file from assets/snippets/webloginpe/js/ to assets/js as per a solution but still does not work - all works fine in Chrome and FF.

    When you go to fill the form out at http://www.dementiacarematters.com/registration.html in later version of IE it just refreshes the page and the login data is just refreshed on the page huh

    I'm sure I had this working when you could turn compatibility on - but now not the case.

    Help !

      What version of MODX are you using and what version of PHP?

        Evo, Patrick. Gavin, what kind of errors is IE showing in its error console?

          I'm running EVO 1.08 and PHP version 5.2.17

          I've stripped the Weblogin Code down into a minimal template to test - and still works in FF & GC

          http://www.dementiacarematters.com/loginietest.html

          No error messages in console when I look

            ie 9 didn't work for me. but chrome worked... not to sure...

            heres my guess remove enctype="multipart/form-data" in <form id="wlpeUserRegisterForm" action="loginietest.html" method="POST" enctype="multipart/form-data"> that worked for others with a ie form not submitting when i googled...
            perhaps also make sure doctype is right for what you need.


            i use
            <!DOCTYPE html>

            in my forms <form class="form" action=" link to action page or [[~[[id]]]]" method="post">

            my best guess for ya...

              Your test code is very messy. You have a div nested inside your p tag.

              My best guess would be to remove the <p></p> surrounding your main div and see if that helps. IE9 is less tolerant of errors in html but is not the monster IE7 or IE8 was.

              I would also check your form action URL as well like Jstump above suggests.

              Hope that helps,

              Paul.

                OK latest update - now have it working across IE9 and IE10

                The initial fix we put in place for IE9 worked but not on IE10

                First off a snippet was created [[ie_ver_emulate]] and this was put in the header at the top

                <?php
/*
 ie_ver_emulate Snippet
 Copyright (c) 2013 by Aleksander Maksymiuk, http://setpro.pl/
*/

preg_match('/(MSIE)\s(\d)\.(\d)/', $_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'], $matches);
$ie_ver = (int)(isset($matches[1]) && isset($matches[2]) ? intval($matches[2]) : 0);

switch ($ie_ver) {
    case 7:
    case 8:
    case 9:
        return '<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=EmulateIE' . $ie_ver . '" />';
    default:
        return '';
}
?>


                This worked well for IE9 but not IE10 !!

                Then did a simple change, and I thought we'd left the snippet in, but no, anyway all works !

                <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
	<head>
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=EmulateIE8" >


                So after a bit more

                  I must admit that I have generally ignored IE10 at the moment. Glad you solved it smiley
