Website display is messed up

Post by jfrasier »

Our library website was redeveloped from the ground up recently and the computers that are running PWB are displaying oddly. We thought maybe it was version of IE or Internet settings or something but when I logged in as the admin and ran IE directly it was fine. When I logged on as our public user and started with PWB, the display was not correct. I included screenshots in an attachment. I will also attach the .ini.

XP sp3, IE 8
PWB 2.104

Thanks.

You are using a very older version of PWB, you should start by upgrading to the current version 2.11.7.

What is the URL of the web site?

I did upgrade to the later version, but I still have the same problem.

I wonder if there is an IE setting that is messing this up. This is hard to troubleshoot because we have locked down a number of Windows options that don't allow 'public' to do things like see the c:\ drive.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Does it mess up when running on a non-locked down computer?

I think it is an issue of compatibility view in IE. I believe that this group of computers must be using compatibility mode for all sites. If I log on as a non-restricted user and change the compatibility view settings it looks ok.

The web site team is seeing if they can add something to the site.

Thanks.

It may be easier to change IE (PWB) out of Forced Compatibility Mode.
