Build Number: Test Status: Passed Test Comments: Tested with the latest web client build and it appears to be working correctly for I.E. 9 and 10. I.E. 8 and 11 previously passed testing on 4/9/15. Verified the following when testing the latest change for this issue: * Drag / drop between views is working * Can run a query * Can perform a search using the Find for both terms and previous queries. * Timeline is generated without any issues. * Appropriate windows open when clicking on a tic mark in the timeline (concept or notes viewer). * Graphs display correctly in I.E. versions 9 or higher. * Appropriate message displays in Graph Results if the browser is I.E. 8 or earlier.

Still needs to be tested for I.E. 9 / 10.

The emulation tag is no longer used so I.E. versions 9.0 or higher are no longer acting like version 8. This means the Graph Results are now working in I.E. 9 or higher. If you are using I.E. 8 (or earlier) then you will receive a message saying that graphs cannot display in Internet Explorer below #9. In addition to graphs working correctly I verified you can run a query, drag / drop items between views, perform searches using the Find for both terms and previous queries. I also verified the timeline plug-in is able to generate the timeline without any issues.

Currently, the Web Client is set to emulate Internet Explorer to 7. Microsoft will no longer be supporting I.E. 7 or 8 therefore this setting needs to be updated. In addition, emulating I.E. 7 is preventing some new Web Client features from working correctly

This is not working in I.E. version 11. It looks like the meta tag was updated to the following:
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=EmulateIE8" /> The problem is it is emulating I.E. 8 even when I am on I.E. 11. This means the new Graph Results feature is not available to anyone using I.E. because we require I.E. 9 or higher. |

Re-opening the issue because there appears to be a problem with I.E. 9 and 10 not working correctly. It works in I.E. 8 and 11.
The proposed fix is to add the following meta tag: <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=7,9,10" > |
