[Xerte-dev] Re: Some more thoughts on IE10 issues

I wouldn't have thought that error's causing that problem though.

Ron, does zooming projects in IE10 (Windows 7) work ok?  Things look ok to me in IE8 / XP when zooming.

Hi,

Fay fixed that particular error yesterday.

Hi,

I've had a few more thoughts on this.

It seems the problem arises when you change the 'zoom' level in IE 10. My aging eyesight had encouraged me to view the pages at 125% magnification but as soon as I dropped this to 100% the problem went away! Firefox seems to zoom in and out without any fuss and so does Chrome. The Nottingham templates also seem to support zooming. You can see this in the attached image. This shows IE10 getting the file from 'localhost' on the left and getting it from 'nottingham.ac.uk' on the right. Both are running at 125% zoom level. You can also see some red warnings in the 'Developer' console below the screen on the left, but they are not present on the right. The warning on the left reads

SCRIPT5007: The value of the property 'windowResized' is null or undefined, not a Function object
play.php, line 62 character 1<0>

I would welcome any suggestions as to a server setting that might need to be changed, e.g. in php.ini or in one of the Apache 2 configuration files, or even elsewhere.

Interestingly the error messages do not occur in the localhost version when the zoom is put to 100%.

It's not a show stopper as I've now set Maxos to use a portable version of Firefox by default. It can fairly easily be configured to run Chrome or IE by uncommenting the appropriate line in a text file - I'll probably make this a little easier by offering an option to the user. But if any of you have any better ideas to offer, I'ld welcome them.

My next step will be to upgrade my external web server to XoT 2.0, but I have tried to get the MAXOS version sorted first because more people are likely to be using that!

Kindest regards, Thomas
