WebBrowser created only is in IE11 (compatibility mode IE7)

Hi
I created my own web browser using VisualStudio 2013 for windows (not app just .exe) and I looked up what web browser I was using for it to work. The  website  That I went through says: MSIE11: compatibility mode MSIE7.  Sites like Touchdevelop.com
also wants javascript.
So My question is can I get it out of IE7 mode and or get javascript to work?
thanks for your help

Hi Manchester007,
It seems that your issue still exists. Actually your issue is out of support range of VS General Question forum which mainly discusses the usage issue of Visual Studio IDE such as
WPF & SL designer, Visual Studio Guidance Automation Toolkit, Developer Documentation and Help System
and Visual Studio Editor.
I consulted IE experts, they told that Internet Explorer Extension Development forum supports your issue. We suggest that you should open a new thread about your issue on this forum:
https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/home?forum=ieextensiondevelopment because this thread here has been a long time. You will get better support in a new thread.
Thanks,

    It seem that you need to change the mode in feature control.
    "For compatibility purposes, the WebBrowser control will run in IE7 Standards Mode by default if no Feature Control Key value is defined for an application.

  • CSS Float Drop in IE8 but not Compatibility Mode

    I'm testing code for my home page across different browsers, and encountered the common IE float drop problem.  This does not occur in Firefox, Chrome, Opera, or IE8 in Compatibility Mode; but does occur in IE8 standard mode.  It's a bit confusing, since I usually encounter this problem in Compatibility Mode.
    I have tried using clear:none; as I thought the content was clearing the float:left of a large flash image on the left side of the window, but it didn't solve the problem.  I have 3 image buttons whose combined heights equate that of the flash image (all 622px), and these are all in a column div floating to the right.  All of these are flush margin:0 and padding:0, border:none.  The flash image has it's own class stating margin:0, padding:0, border:none as well.  These divs are fixed pixel widths and heights.  I tried placing them in a larger container div with fixed width and height, which didn't solve the problem.  Again, this only occurs in IE8 Compatibility Mode.
    This is the code below:
    div id="container">                  
    embed src="index.swf" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" height="622" width="509" align="left" class="flashhome"> /embed>                     
    div id="homecontright">           
      a href="services.html?panel=5">           
      img src="button1.gif" align="top" border="0" alt="b1" class="imageright"/> /a>                        
      a href="smt.html">          
       img src="button2.gif" align="top" border="0" alt="b2" class="imageright"/> /a>                       
       a href="jobs.html">          
       img src="button3" align="top" border="0" alt="b3" class="imageright"/> /a>        
    /div>       
      div class="floatfix"> /div>             
       div id="foot" align="center">      
       contact info footer      
       /div>             
       /div>
    Here is the style information from my separate stylesheet
    #homecontright { margin:0; padding:0; border:none; width:493px; height:622px; overflow:visible; float:right; display:block; }
    .imageright {margin-left: auto; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; display: block; float: right }
    .flashhome { width:509px; height:622px; margin:0; padding:0; float:left; border:none; }
    div#container { margin-left:auto; margin-right:auto; margin-bottom:0; width:1002px; background-color:#A8CBE9; }
    div#foot {      background-color:#003366;      border-color:#a8cbe9;      border-width:thin;      border-style:solid;      font-size:10px;      width:996px;      padding:0.2em;      margin-left:auto;     margin-right:auto;      text-align:center;      font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;      font-weight:bold;      color:#FFFFFF;      height:10px; }
    .floatfix { clear:both; }
    I've tried removing all the floats, even, especially the ones in the nested divs/class elements; but this didn't do a thing.  This leads me to wonder if this really is a float drop problem or am I missing something?
    EDIT: I fail at posting code so I've removed the front bracket from all tags.  Also, added a diagram to show what it's supposed to look like and what is happening in IE 8 Compatibility.  The margins do not exist, they are there so you can see individual elements

    I tried adjusting the images on the right -10px and had the same result.  Those images were actually created with margins within the image, so everything should be flush.
    I noticed, however, that even in browsers where everything aligns correctly, there seems to be a 2-3px jog between the flash image and the buttons on the right.  That strange link to the bottom right of the flash image is still appearing as well, somehow having to do with the top banner image when right clicked.  I tried changing the URL of that banner and the link changed as well, confirming my suspicion that they're linked.  I attempted to contain that image in a fixed width div with no results.  This link does not appear in other browsers, nor does it appear on any other pages that I used that code on.
    Code for my banner:
    <...a href="index.html"><img src="index/accuweb_c3homebannerR1a.jpg" alt="banner" border="0" class="banner"/><.../a>

    Hi,
    It seems there is nothing to do with IE mode.
    Please make sure your link still can be accessed.
    The WebBrowser displays HTML content in applications running in a Silverlight 4 or later out-of-browser applications or in Silverlight 5 in-browser trusted applications only.

  • Firefox only runs in compatibility mode

    I have Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit,
    I have been running Firefox without any problems, however, today when using it it suddenly crashed and I was unable to start again.
    It would display a menu with choices whether to run in safe-mode and some other options, but I would not be able to start in safe mode, because, while displaying the options, "windows is trying to solve the problem" message appears freezing firefox and the only way out is to end the program.
    However, If I choose to launch firefox in compatibility mode with XP sp3, I can use it without any visible problems.
    The only changes I've done is updating Java yesterday, but there weren't any issues right after the update.
    How could I fix this?
    /I need the latest Java to run some applications (chess in particular) that requires the latest version/
    I don't have anything in the crash log from today

    There's nothing from the past week in the crash logs.
    However, the problem is now solved.
    I disabled Java updater process and removed it from startup. Soon after I was offered to install Firefox version 15. Then I tried to install it, but got a message that it is impossible to do because Firefox is still running and must be closed, that happened several times despite killing the process in task manager.
    However in some time the installation managed to start and succeed. Afterwards I didn't have any issues running Firefox in normal mode.
    I am unsure whether it was disabling Java updater or upgrading Firefox that solved the problem, but either way it's fixed and good.
    Thank you guys for replying though.

  • Firefox will not open unless I run it in compatibility mode (Windows XP SP 3), run it as an administrator, or launch it immediately after a reinstall (the reinstall thing only works once.) How do I fix this?

    This morning, Firefox crashed. After this, when I click the Firefox icon, the hourglass appears and then nothing happens. Firefox does briefly appear in the task manager when I do this.
    I tried rebooting. I tried reinstalling multiple times. (Firefox will run when I select "Launch Firefox" from the installer. Then the problem occurs again.) I tried safe mode. I have found that Firefox will work if I select Windows XP compatibility mode from the icon properties menu or if I run the program as an administrator. When I do this, Windows asks me if I want a program to be able to make changes to my computer.
    I have noticed that a Windows Error Report is being generated each time Firefox will not open.

    A possible cause is security software (firewall,anti-virus) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

  • ITunes 10.1 only works in Compatibility Mode

    I downloaded 10.1 and installed it but when I tried to bring it up the program did not open, A message came up that said it was in XP compatibility mode but still did not work. Uninstalled and reinstalled several times with the same results.
    Can anyone help?
    Thanks

    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down page in case one of them applies.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.
    If you've already done the above and things still aren't working, try opening iTunes in safe mode by holding down CTRL+SHIFT as you launch iTunes, then going into Edit > Preferences > Store and turning off Show iTunes in the Cloud purchases. If you close iTunes and reopen you may find that it now behaves normally.

  • How to set Compatibility Mode for a single site in ie10

    This question was originally posted on the Answers forum -
    http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/ie/forum/ie10-windows_7/how-to-set-compatibility-mode-for-a-single-site-in/187152e3-142a-4d96-8d1b-af82ef571eec
    I am having problem with getting ie10 to set ie9 compatibility for a single site (sharepoint.contoso.com).
    When I add this website in Compatibility View Settings (Alt > Tools > Compatibility View Settings > 'Add this Website') it adds the domain 'contoso.com' and not the individual website (sharepoint.contoso.com).
    This cause other sites (www.contoso.com) to be configured to use compatibility mode. Because this is a separate site (different web server) to the site sharepoint.contoso.com (sharepoint 2010 server) we need different compatibility settings.
    Using a different example to explain the issue -
    Microsoft has three websites that are different websites created by different developers written in different programming languages and they only work with certain browsers.
    microsoft.com (Website1 created by Developer1) - compatible with ie8/ie9/ie10
    msdn.microsoft.com (Website2 created by Developer2) - compatible with ie8/ie9
    technet.microsoft.com (Website3 website created by Developer3) - compatible only with ie10
    The only thing the three website share is the URL contains 'microsoft.com'.
    Marking 'msdn.microsoft.com' to run in compatibility mode affects the other 2 websites - mainly technet.microsoft.com which will not work now since it only runs in pure ie10 mode. 
    Should you be able to add an individual site to the compatibility list instead of all sites that have  .microsoft.com in the URL? Am I missing a simple setting in the ie10?
    As a workaround I am using the F12 Developer Tools to set the Browser Mode which temporary sets the compatibility mode. However this is not a nice solution to the end users at our organisation.

  • Save as PSD no longer saves in compatibility mode

    When saving a psd file I can no longer save in "compatibility mode". I'm using a Mac computer with OSX (version 10.8.3)  and Photoshop CS6 (version 13.1.2 x64). I just noticed this problem tonight when I tried to bring a psd file into a MUSE project. Now whenever I save a PSD file the menu that asks if I want to save in compatibility mode doesn't appear (it just saves the file). I've reset the preferences and restarted my computer but Photoshop still doesn't give me a compatibility mode option when saving a PSD file.

    I'm saving multi layered files (not files with only a background layer) for import into Adobe Muse (normal, roll over, mouse down and active layers). My file handling for "Maximize PSD and PSB file compatibility" is set to ask but I did try changing to always when I started having issues and it didn't change anything. I'm pretty experienced with Photoshop so I've tried the obvious solutions. So far my only fix is to start my project form scratch and I'll be able to save the file correctly. I really think I've triggered a bug at some point in creating my project (changing the image size or something along those lines) because it doesn't always happen.
    Thanks for the suggestion, conroy.

  • MIME type issue in version 4.1/4.2 Compatibility Mode

    Problem: when displaying a PDF file, it displays OK as PDF if APEX 'Compatability Mode' = 'Pre 4.1', but displays as HTML when in either '4.1' or '4.2' mode.
    Apex: 4.2.2.00.11
    DB: 11gr2
    Web server: Apache on Linux
    More detailed description... this seems to be a MIME type issue related to APEX (or maybe DB) versioning.  The following code works as expected when run in 'Pre 4.1' mode - ie. it displays an appropriate PDF document in the appropriate Acrobat/other plugin in several browsers (Firefox/Opera/Chrome/IE).  But just by changing 'Compatability Mode' to '4.2' (or even '4.1'), it then downloads the file but displays it as a bunch of random characters, and the web page header MIME type is 'text/HTML'.
    Note: this also happens with other file types such as xls/doc/etc, but I expect fixing PDF should also fix these.
    I'm at a bit of a loss as to where this is happening, it seems there is a difference in the 'Compatibility Modes' between either the creating of the HTML header using 'OWA_UTIL.mime_header' or the component path it traverses before reaching apache.
    The only other thing I could think of is that we do a bit of redirection to display the PDF, though this seems like it might be a red herring.  Basically we use page 560 as a container, and then display the PDF with page 561 within a frame embeded within page 560.  So, on the page 560, which is the one we reference throughout the application, we have  a region with a source of '&lt;iframe src=?p=&APP_ID.:561:&SESSION.height="500" width="700"&gt&lt;/iframe&gt</pre>'.  Then on page 561, in a 'On Load - Before Header' process, we make the call to the code 'DOWNLOAD_APPLICANT_PDF' (below).
    Note: I did try calling 'apex_application.stop_apex_engine' after 'DOWNLOAD_APPLICANT_PDF', as suggested in a couple threads, but it didn't fix the problem, and caused a couple low-level system errors.
    Code:
    <pre>
      CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE DOWNLOAD_APPLICANT_PDF ( p_doc_id IN   NUMBER
       AS
          v_length      NUMBER;
          lob_loc       BLOB;
          l_display_inline   CHAR := '1';
       BEGIN
          SELECT pdf_data, DBMS_LOB.getlength (pdf_data)
            INTO lob_loc, v_length
            FROM pdf_dest
           WHERE pdf_dest_id = p_doc_id;
          OWA_UTIL.mime_header ('application/pdf', FALSE);
          HTP.p ('Content-length: ' || v_length);
          HTP.p ('Content-Disposition:inline;filename="mydoc.pdf"');
          OWA_UTIL.http_header_close;
          WPG_DOCLOAD.download_file (lob_loc);
    END;
    </pre>

    Hi,
    for some background information about the above changed behavior, have a look at 4.2 Before Header Processes and Browser Security HTTP Headers of the APEX 4.1. release notes.

  • Some compatibility modes missing for certain exe's ??

    Hi,
    I found that I can get the Xerox Phaser 5500 postscript driver not to crash in Vista x64 by flagging x2jobtAO.exe to use Windows 2003 Server Sp1 compatibility mode.  However in Windows 7 x64 I can't do that but I can for other executables.  Only
    Windows Server 2008 Sp1, Vista gold, Sp1, Sp2 modes are available.  Is there a way to get back Windows 95, 98/ME, XP, 2003 modes???

    Hi,
    I would like to suggest you perform the following steps to troubleshoot this issue.
    1.   
    Navigate to [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\AppCompatFlags\Layers].
    2.   
    Create a new String Value in the right pane, and name it with the full path of the program’s exe file.
    3.   
    Modify the full path of the program’s exe file with the following Compatibility Mode Date value.
    Windows 95 Mode 
    WIN95
    Windows 98 / Windows Me Mode 
    WIN98
    Windows NT 4.0 (Service Pack 5) Mode 
    NT4SP5
    Windows 2000

    Windows XP (Service Pack 2) Mode 
    WINXPSP2
    Windows Server 2003 (Service Pack 1) 
    WINSRV03SP1
    Does it work?

  • Windows 7's Compatibility Mode Behavior

    I am reproducing this question which I posted to superuser.com a while back, without getting any response. I need to know the answer to this question; more and more of my users are encountering this problem. 
    http://superuser.com/questions/743064/windows-7s-compatibility-mode-behavior
    Consider the Application Compatibility Mode settings for a typical Windows program:
    The question is: What exactly will happen to the environment (specifically, the access to C:\ProgramData) supplied by Windows to the program when the only change is to configure the properties for compatibility with WinXP SP3, as follows:
    The background:
    An application that was last updated during Windows XP's heyday is now giving us some problems. Specifically, it's tuned to use a .NET library to write some files to a subdirectory in the %ALLUSERSPROFILE% area (on Windows 7, that's
    typically C:\ProgramData) which are vital to the application's licensing. The files themselves are plain text files.
    These text files are created and written using a much newer and separate .NET program which functions properly, writing the files in the correct place. But then running the older program doesn't read the files correctly; we haven't been able to determine
    exactly what's going on.
    Many users are finding that setting compatibility mode makes it possible for the system to run correctly. I need to understand that much better.
    -- Rob

    But that is not the question. The question is, "What is the list of shims and what does each of them do? "
    As I pointed out, they're plain text files written to a subdirectory in %ALLUSERSPROFILE%. The installer requires administrator mode and then sets the rights on the subdirectory to "Full Control" for "Users" after it creates the folder. 
    "Specifically, it's tuned to use a .NET library to write some files to a subdirectory in the %ALLUSERSPROFILE% area

  • How to turn off Compatibility Mode on Project 2010

    I am having trouble turning off Compatibility Mode on Project 2010 in our organization - Project is installed as part of Office Professional Plus 2010.
    When I open Microsoft Project it displays [Compatibility Mode] in the title bar.
    When I choose Save As, the type of file is "Microsoft Project 2007 (*mpp)". I can go ahead and change this each time to "Project (*.mpp)" but I would like this to be the default setting for all users.
    Under File, Options, Save - the "Save files in this format" is greyed out and set to "Microsoft Project 2007 (*mpp)".
    I have created a GPO under: User configuration - Policies - Administrative Templates - Classic Administrative Templates - Microsoft Project 2010 - Project Options - Save, and I have set "Save Microsoft Project files as" "Project
    (*.mpp)".
    My only other choices are "Template" or "Project 2000-2003"
    This GPO is applying correctly, however - Project continues to open in Compatibility Mode.
    In my GPO, should I be seeing a set of different option for "Save Microsoft Project files as"?
    Otherwise, am I missing something else in order to turn off Compatibility Mode for Project?
    Many thanks in advance!

    Hi Paul,
    I have tested with a test GPO and these are the results:
    When "Save Microsoft Project files as" state is set to "Enabled": Opens in Compatibility Mode and under File, Options, Save - the "Save files in this format" is greyed out and set to "Microsoft Project 2007 (*mpp)".
    When "Save Microsoft Project files as" state is set to "Disabled": Project opens fine and under File, Options, Save - the "Save files in this format" is not greyed out and I can choose "Project", "Microsoft Project
    2007", "Microsoft Project 2000-2003" and "Project Template".
    What I believe to be the problem is that "Save Microsoft Project files as" options that are available for me to choose in my GPO do not seem to be aware of Office 2010. The options available are:
    "Project (*.mpp)"
    "Template (*.mpt)"
    "Project 2000-2003 (*.mpp)"
    There is no specific mention of "Project 2007", it seems like the GPO recognises Project 2007 as the most recent when we are in fact using Office 2010.
    Could this be that my Group Policy Templates are for Office 2007 rather than Office 2010? That would be odd as the policy location itself is located under: User Configuration/Policies/Administrative Templates/Classic Administrative Templates/Microsoft Project
    2010/Project Options/Save
    ...so as this specifically mentions Project 2010 I would assume that it is using the correct version.
    Another quick note: I needed to Add Template in GPME so that "Classic Administrative Templates" would be available, and the template I added was proj14.adm which I believe is the correct 2010 template.
    Many thanks,
    Van

  • Runtime Compatibility Mode property

    Hello!
    I have a problem after the migration from Forms6i to Forms9i because there is no Runtime Compatibility Mode property anymore. In the previous version I used 4.5 value for that field because that was the only way to realise a sequance of trigger firing. If you put 4.5 value (in a master-detail structured form), WHEN-CREATE-RECORD fires, and then WHEN-NEW-RECORD-INSTANCE when you jump from master to detail block. I need that because I use copying a new value of some items from master to detail block at the time of transition between them. If you omit 4.5 value, you have a firing just WHEN-NEW-RECORD-INSTANCE, without a firing WHEN-CREATE-RECORD.
    Now in Forms9i we don't have such field (Runtime Compatibility Mode property), so I don't have first scenario. It's a significant problem for my forms!
    Have anyone got an explaination or suggestion for this? Thank you in advance!!!

    This is yet another reason why we encourage customers to never fall too far behind.  The further you are from the current version, the more difficult it will be to upgrade.  In most cases, new major releases (at least for Forms/Reports) are only released once every 2-4 years (approximately).  Therefore, if you planned to stay within 2 major releases of the current, you might only be upgrading once every 6 years or so.  This seem fairly reasonable and would make the process much easier.  So, for example, if the current version is 11gR2, you should be on at least 10 as these versions are about 6 years apart.  Trying to get from 4.5 (and you didn't mention exactly which 4.5.x) will expectedly require more effort and time than if you were already on 6 or 9 or 10.
    If you are coming from non-web versions (pre-6.0.8), our recommendation is that you stop at Forms 6i (6.0.8) and get your application working here before moving forward.  Major code and any GUI design changes should be done at this level.  The application should be verified to work correctly before continuing.  Following the 6i to 11g Upgrade Guide previously mentioned will make this process a little easier because it will tell you what needs to be changed (if anything).  Once your application complies with the changes mentioned in the Guide, moving from 6 to 11 should be mostly simple.  The biggest issue will be getting users accustomed to the application now that you have gone from a character mode or client/server interface to web.  But since the functionality of the application will be mostly the same, for the users, it will be mostly just about getting used to the app looking different.
    Something else to consider is that there are various organizations that can assist you with the upgrade.  For example Oracle Consulting and Oracle Partners.  These groups often have utilities to help identify the problem areas you mentioned as well as other application analysis tools.
