IE6/7

IE6/7 Compatability

I copied the code (that FW generates when this option is switched on)
into a new .js file and uploaded to the server.
I turned Compatability to ‘Normal’
The went into HTML Markup and entered:
Before /head

But it doesn’t appear to have worked. Has anyone else got this working
correctly?

I’m using Adobe Browserlab to check how IE6 renders the page.

The script tag needs to go inside the IE conditional, so it will need
to be:

<!--[if lt IE 7]>
	<script type="text/javascript" src="iejscript.js"></script>
<![endif]-->

And you will need to remove the following from the .js file:

<!--[if lt IE 7]>
	<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css/ie6.css"/>
<![endif]-->
<!--[if lt IE 7]>
...
<![endif]-->

You should also add this back to the main page:

<!--[if lt IE 7]>
	<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css/ie6.css"/>
<![endif]-->

Doh!

I had copied a style reference (ie6.css) into the js file by mistake.
It looks ok now.

Just one more thing. Does anyone know where IE6 can be tested live
rather than through a screen capture service?

Your friendly neighborhood cybercafe?
Although most probably aren’t using IE6 any more.
Perhaps your local library.

I know, I know, you’d probably rather not actually have to travel to do it. :slight_smile:

I’m not sure if you have it working yet or not but you still have:

<!--[if lt IE 7]>

and

<![endif]-->

in the JavaScript file which is invalid.

Hi Nathan,
You need to edit the iescript.js file slightly (http://www.newyoubootcamp.com/iejscript.js
). The script file shouldn’t contain the enclosing script tags (as
these are already in the HTML file).

<-- remove this line

Regards,
Tim.
