Multiple Internet Explorer version browser testing (Internet Explorer 6-8)? - css

One of the best applications I've ever had the privelege of using was Tredosoft's MultipleIE application.
However, now that I'm using Windows 7, and that application was never ported to Windows 7, there does not appear to be a similar installable product available for testing pages in multiple versions of Internet Explorer.
Then along came Spoon.
However, they've pulled their Internet Explorer sandbox emulator due to a Microsoft cease and desist (WTF?)
So how do I test my web page designs in Internet Explorer 7 (I have Internet Explorer 8 installed), preferably via localhost?

You might want to check out Microsoft Expression Web 4's SuperPreview: http://expression.microsoft.com/en-us/dd565874.aspx
It should let you test locally IE6-9, including compatibility modes. It also supports other browsers you might have installed locally and has a beta for remote browsers.

Cuteeditor not working in IE 11 after Patch

Our company just installed an IE 11 patch and it broke the CuteEditor that we are using for an internal ASP.NET 3.5 website. We have changed the X-UA-Compatible to IE11 and EDGE with no success. It works fine on our local machines, but does not work on the server. Our enterprise has Enterprise Mode and Compatibility mode setup for Intranet sites. After the patch installed, we no longer have the CuteEditor toolbar and the textboxes are readonly. It works fine in Chrome, but that's not really a viable solution for a large enterprise right now.
Here is a link to the MS for the patch that was installed
Can anyone shed any light on what we need to do?
We found a fix for the issue. We had to disable partial rendering in the update panels that the cuteeditor controls were in.

Infragistics 12.2 WebDatePicker not displaying the Date in IE11

We are planning to upgrade the browser to IE 11. So was testing all the web application whether it is compatible with IE 11.
One Asp.net 4.0 project uses Infragisitcs 12.2 and the WebDatePicker doesn't display the Date in IE 11 after hosting to IIS server 7.5. It was working fine in IE 10.
It was working fine in my local machine with IE 11. But just when it is hosted in IIS 7.5 it is not working.
Is it something related to the IIS setting.
Can some one please help on this.
As stated at http://www.infragistics.com/support/supported-environments IE11 is supported when running Infragistics products 13.1 and later. It means IE11 has not been tested with older version of IG product.

Visual Studio 2010 with IE 11 and 2.0 classic web pools

i am using IIS in a visual studio 2010 solution with Integrated 4.0 and 2.0 Classic web pools. when i use IE 11 over the Inet to "try" and login, the app fails.
yes i know about changing settings but this cannot happen on my web site. Any thoughts on what is happening and / or why?
i have not tried to bring up the app using IE 11, any ideas on the "surprises" i will find? thanks for any comments, they are appreciated.
I had the same issue using VS2010. I knew this problem existed with IE 10 and I somehow let the automatic updates install IE 11.
I found this fix from MS and it resolved the issue for me:
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/visualstudioalm/archive/2013/09/17/coded-ui-mtm-issues-on-internet-explorer-with-kb2870699.aspx
My apologies if this is wide of the OP's question, but I also had problems using Studio 2010 with the new IE 11 (googling those two terms led me here, and John B's post led me to answer). Specifically Studio's debugger would fail to attach to IE 11 while I was launching a Silverlight project.
John B linked to an MSDN patch. After I installed it, Studio still would fail to attach to IE11, but at least this time I got an error message: "The 32-bit version of the Visual Studio Remote Debugging Monitor (MSVSMON.EXE) cannot be used to debug 64-bit processes or 64-bit dumps. Please use the 64-bit version instead."
From that message I found out that Silverlight can only run in 32-bit mode. And both IE10 and IE11 cannot run in 32-bit mode when they place all the tabs into a single 64-bit process. However, if "Enhanced Protected Mode" is enabled (which it was for me by default, it's under Internet Options' Security tab) and you change this registry value...
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main\TabProcGrowth
...to be something more than 0 (I set mine to 5, not sure it matters much as long as it's more than 0), then IE11 is able to spawn 32-bit processes and Studio is able to launch a 32-bit browser instance that it can attach the Silverlight debugger to.

Same ASP.NET web application, but different performance in windows and mac-os, unix or linux

I deploy a asp.net web application to datacenter in usa using windows 2008 64bits and sqlserver express 2008.
if i using mac-os or linux ubuntu or unix or mobile android or iphone or ipad my application works better ... very fast... but if i using windows xp, 7, 2008 this same application performance is bad .. more bad .... it's joke? I using power configuration in pc (4gb ram, dual core).
what's happen ?
Thanks

It probably has more to do with the differences between the browsers than anything else. Since you can't really use the exact same browser on all systems, try using a browser that allows you to see a time window of when resources are pulled down and how long they take. I know Chrome has built in tools for this, and I'm sure Firefox does as well.
