Re: [Koha] OPAC display in Internet Explorer
Dear All, I am using Koha 2.2.9 on windows-xp platform. OPAC is woring properly with Mozilla Firefox and Netscape. But in Microsoft Internet Explorer menus or not displaying properly. It is very difficult to install Mozilla or Netscape in all LAN connected systems. please give your suggestions to solve the problem. Regards Venkata Narayana T Now surf faster and smarter ! Check out the new Firefox 3 - Yahoo! Edition http://downloads.yahoo.com/in/firefox/?fr=om_email_firefox
Unfortunately - as far as I know - Koha was not optimized for IE in previous versions - and work is just being done now on fixing that - if you call it fixing :) --- Nicole C.

Paul's 2.2.6 release notes said "The librarian interface is tested only with Mozilla/Firefox. Should work (partially) with IE. OPAC should work fine with any browser." It seems that there was some slip-back on this in 3.0, from this comment and some bug reports I've got and am struggling to debug. It's understandable (few devs or librarians use IE or similar), but I'll open an RFC for having valid xhtml and CSS in opac as a release requirement in future. Comments?

Similar bugs for CSS and XHTML have already been filed, I think. In this case, it's probably not the xhtml and CSS, as much as the trailing commas in javascript argument pairs, like: { name1: val1, name2: val2, } For whatever reason, IE chokes on that. The menus in question are probably YUI, and therefore js dependent. There currently is an IE compatibility category in bugzilla, if you find outstanding issues. Venkata, please be sure to specify what version of IE you are testing with. --Joe On Tue, May 5, 2009 at 2:48 PM, MJ Ray <mjr@phonecoop.coop> wrote:

Out of curiosity, does this problem occur in IE 8.0 as well? -- Please reply to this list only. I read this list on its corresponding newsgroup on gmane.org. Replies sent to my email address are just filtered to a folder in my mailbox and get periodically deleted without ever having been read.

MJ this particular issue is with Koha 2.2.9 running on Windows. I think accessing OPAC from windows in Koha 3 has no problem...
