IE 9 is a new browser and there are
a few display issues with the forum like wrong size when opening DHTML window as well as some WYSIWYG editor problems.
For now, we need a workaround to prevent the issues from happening for IE9 users by asking IE 9 to emulate IE 8's display engine:
to the Head tag of the outermost master pages, and they are:
Alternatively (actually easier), if you have access to the IIS Manager, you can add a custom HTTP header for the forum folder:
Custom header name: X-UA-Compatible
Custom header value: IE=EmulateIE8

For now, we need a workaround to prevent the issues from happening for IE9 users by asking IE 9 to emulate IE 8's display engine:
If you are on IIS 7 (Windows 2008 Server):
Add the following section to your web.config file, between <system.webServer></system.webServer><httpProtocol> <customHeaders> <clear /> <add name="X-UA-Compatible" value="IE=EmulateIE8" /> </customHeaders> </httpProtocol>
If you are on IIS 6 (Windows 2003 Server):
You can add the following meta tag:<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=EmulateIE8" />
to the Head tag of the outermost master pages, and they are:
- For the Classic Theme
- ~/MasterPage.master
- ~/App_Templates/Classic/popup.master
- For the Original Theme
- ~/App_Templates/Original/Regular.master
- ~/App_Templates/Original/popup.master
Alternatively (actually easier), if you have access to the IIS Manager, you can add a custom HTTP header for the forum folder:
Custom header name: X-UA-Compatible
Custom header value: IE=EmulateIE8
