Website doesn't render in IE9

Your website doesn't render in IE9 - see sshot-4.png attached. I'm having to use Chrome at the moment. Renders okay in IE10. I'm working with a company to try and get them interested in StarWind and it doesn't help that they can't view your website...

Cheers, Rob.

PS. IE9 on Windows 7 Enterprise x64

PS. The forums are okay in IE9 but they are phpBB based so that's not surprising. Cheers, Rob.

Not sure if this quirk is related to the change you've made but the forums now as me to login in each and doesn't seem to be obeying the "Log me in automatically each visit". Just to confuse, this is actually on IE10 with Windows 2008/XenApp. We use Windows 7 desktops & XenApp so sometimes we're on IE9 and other times we're on IE10.

There are known problems with cookies and IE10 re: roaming profiles but this is in the same session:

1. Click on link to forums
2. Login and check "Remember me"
3. Close browser
4. Repeat and asked to login again

Cookies are working fine BTW as I regularly logon to two other phpBB sites, one of which we host ourselves. Have you changed the domain name recently? There is a cookie setting in phpBB around the domain name.

Cheers, Rob.

Funny... I have Chrome and Safari and have the same issue. Will ask web team to take a look. Thanks!

Driving me up the wall this morning

Have logged on to five or six replies and I'm having to logon to read each one...

I've had exactly the same when we changed the domain name for our forums. Cookies weren't matching up with the new domain name and therefore weren't working. Was a simple fix in the admin panel.

Cheers, Rob.

Rob, thanks for your interest.
We have not changed the domain. In our case there's the new version of php on the server.
Upgrading the forum version helped to solve this problem.

Thanks, Nikolay

Yeah - working now! Cheers, Rob.

Works for me as well. Thank you Nick!

More of a niggle but thought I'd mention it. We use Citrix XenApp and I'm currently logged on at home. The more I type into this box in phpBB, the slower it gets - that's when I'm using IE10. Say when it gets to a few screens. I've actually taken to using Chrome for reading the Starwind forums and that is perfect. I'm going to guess it's a IE9 (Javascript), XenApp & phpBB combo problem and not your implementation as such.

Will see if the same occurs with our own phpBB forum.

Cheers, Rob.

There's no much we can do about phpBB so I'd suggest to leave this AS IS now...
