Site is fine, but when viewed in IE compatibility view the site appears skewed, particularly JA Image Hotspot. See attached and website at http://www.icac.org.jm. Please help.

Hi,
Looks like the problem is a js conflict with a 3rd party add on -> var ws = datso.fn.dgtooltip.autoWE;

Regards

Ok. So how do I resolve this? Also, if I view from joomlart.com, JA Beranis in compatibility view using IE, the same thing happens. See image:

Hi,

May i ask what version of IE you are getting those results ?
Here’s a screenshot from IE 8 > http://prntscr.com/1wosci

For the time i can’t find an older one but i think it’s working fair enough

Well, a user that is using IE9 seems to have that issue (it only happen in Compatibility View). The user has indicated that she does not have “Compatibility View” on. So I have placed this code within the header – <meta http-equiv=”X-UA-Compatible” content=”IE=9″ > hoping to force the browser not to view in Compatibility view.

Will that help her?

Her pc may still be in compatibility view even though it doesn’t look like it. In IE got to Tools>compatibility view settings and get her to check the settings there particularly the check boxes at the bottom. Usually one of the top 2 boxes are ticked or your site is in the list. IE compatibility view is a bit of a compromise on the rendering engine so many sites will not display well when using it.

Your code looks correct, seems to me that there won’t be any problem!
