Webhelp Responsive Issue for IE 11 browser

Hi,

In IE11 browser Webhelp Responsive gets automatically detected in "Compatibility View" and IE version changes to 7 due to this we are getting many issues for Responsive view.

The "meta" tag with "x-ua-compatible" is not set for Responsive view. Although it is present for classic view and Classic view works properly in IE11 browser.

We are using Oxygen XML Author 18.1 for generating webhelp files.
Can you please provide changes for Webhelp Responsive view so that the "meta" tag with "x-ua-compatible" gets added in all files linked in the ditamap.

Thanks & Regards,
Manju

Hello,

It should work if you edit the following template files by adding

Code: Select all

<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge,chrome=1"/>
as the first element of the <head>:
- ${DITA_OT_DIR}\plugins\com.oxygenxml.webhelp\templates\dita\bootstrap\wt_index.html
- ${DITA_OT_DIR}\plugins\com.oxygenxml.webhelp\templates\dita\bootstrap\wt_search.html
- ${DITA_OT_DIR}\plugins\com.oxygenxml.webhelp\templates\dita\bootstrap\wt_terms.html
- ${DITA_OT_DIR}\plugins\com.oxygenxml.webhelp\templates\dita\bootstrap\wt_topic.html

Regards,
Bogdan

Hi,

We have added "<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge,chrome=1"/>" as first element after head tag in above mentioned template files.
But this "x-ua-compatible" meta tag is not set as first tag in WebHelp Responsive output pages.
Due to which we are still facing issues for some pages in IE11 browser.

Can you please verify it and provide us the solution.

Thanks & Regards,
Manju
